First off, take a look around. New blog layout, oh yeah! I got some more things I want to implement, but this was the biggest part and it is done. I haven’t changed since I started this blog way back in February of 2009 (whoa!) so it was a long time coming.

As I promised last week, it’s book club time! Since Rob pretty much only does movies based on books, I feel like we get to do this a bunch. And I pretty much love it cause I love book clubs. They rule.

And of course, this time we are gonna read Cosmopolis, a book that has gotten some, well, not so good reviews. Which I kind of hate because 1) we are already starting off on a bad foot and 2) it’ll probably be confusing. I mean, let’s get real, I pretty much only read young adult and fan fiction, so serious adult books are not my typical fare.

But hey, let’s all not understand the book together!

So, here is the plan:

Cosmopolis is divided into 4 chapters, but the chapters are LONG, so we are gonna spend the next 4 weeks (starting next Monday) reading 1 chapter each week. On each Monday of the week, I’ll write up some of my thoughts on the book, and then you all can share your own in the comments. Hopefully we can get some good discussions and maybe, just maybe, understand the book and the story line just a little bit better.

Oh, and figure out approximately how many times Rob may or may not be having sexy times. Cause really, we do have priorities here.

Here’s a little schedule in case you made some kind of New Year’s resolution to be super organized:

• Chapter 1 Recap – January 17
• Chapter 2 Recap – January 24
• Chapter 3 Recap – January 31
• Chapter 4 Recap - February 7

So, are you ready? Get a copy of the book now from Amazon or your favorite book retailer. Or maybe the library. Where ever! Just do it and do it now. And get to reading!

Mini disclaimer… if you click that link and order from Amazon, I get a teeny, tiny portion of the purchase price. It all goes into the up keep of the blog, but I figure I should tell you.
