Another round?

My friend Dan Reed asked if we were still doing that man's book club. Not sure where we left off, but I'll put out some suggestions there and let you guys rank them for our next read.

  2. So master and commander is your top choice? I'd love to see you before you go back to tje fatherland but i probably couldn't finish a book that quickly.

  3. Dad is Fat might be a quicker read. We could also just get together without a book to discuss. I didn't look at the number of pages before I rated them. Of course, I have a long plane ride, so that's an advantage as long as Ivy decides that she can sleep in the bassinet :)

  4. BTW... The Executioner's Song is over 1000 pages according to Amazon.

  8. My friend Dan messaged me to say Master and Commander is his first choice. Should we settle on that one and get started ASAP for Myles' sake?

  9. Should we get some nominations up from the rest of us as well for the coming months, see if we can't keep this going? I'll see if I can't wrangle a few other members in as well.

  10. Great! I bought it today on Amazon, so as long as it ships on time, I'll be reading it on the plane.
