Subject: Proposed Discussion Schedule

So here is my first run at the schedule. Let me know how this looks and I'll try to accommodate changes if possible.

Hunger Games
1/29 - 2/18 (3 weeks)

Race of Scorpions
3/4 - 4/14 (6 weeks)

In the Company of the Courtesan
5/6 - 6/2 (4 weeks)

Flights of Angels
6/17 - 7/28 (6 weeks)

The Paris Wife
8/26 - 9/22 (4 weeks)

The Orphan's Tales: In the Night Garden
10/7 - 11/10 (5 weeks)

My goal was to get all of the discussions completed before the holidays and to leave some time between each discussion. Hopefully this works for everyone. :-)

Additionally, Scorpions and Angels will be discussed in our expanded format, which will require volunteers. I'm still working out The Orphan's Tales, but we should be able to do outside questions with the remaining three books. (NT) -- Lil, 06:45:12 01/12/12 Thu
- I'm happy to take a section of 'Scorpions'. (NT) -- celtgirl, 16:41:07 01/12/12 Thu
  - great, thanks! (NT) -- Lil, 19:40:12 01/12/12 Thu
    - Maybe I can start things off, since I'll be gone about the middle of the month for a few weeks. (NT) -- Denise, 22:06:48 01/12/12 Thu
- Would be happy to post a week for Angels, Scorpions and Orphan's. Might be gone for the first week of Angels' discussion, think that's the only limitation. (NT) -- Elaine, 08:23:47 01/14/12 Sat
Decision time. I either need to skip Hunger Games and read Ram so I can read Scorpion, or I can read Hunger Games (which we have in the house) and stay behind with the Dunnett books. What to do, what to do. (NT) -- PeggyB, 22:25:17 01/12/12 Thu
- Hunger Games is a real fast read, you could maybe do both? Though maybe you want to pace yourself to keep up with the discussion, anyway... (NT) -- MaryC in KY, 06:06:51 01/13/12 Fri
- I read Hunger Games in a 24 hour period. It's fast moving for sure! I will be bringing in outside questions, so on those discussions we all need to have read the book to avoid spoilers from the discussion. (NT) -- Lil, 07:52:44 01/13/12 Fri
  - OK, if it is that quick a read, perhaps I can do both. I just re-started Ram last night, though, D'oh! (NT) -- PeggyB, 09:17:30 01/13/12 Fri
    - I read 'The Hunger Games' in one day like Mary. You should be able to do both, no problem! (NT) -- Denise, 10:39:03 01/13/12 Fri
      - Ooops, Nalana read it in one day - well, it is a very fast read. (NT) -- Denise, 10:40:40 01/13/12 Fri
        Started "Hunger Games" at lunch, I'm hooked already. (NT) -- PeggyB, 13:22:16 01/13/12 Fri
        That's what it does!! I read the whole series in a matter of a few days. :-) (NT) -- Lil, 14:23:40 01/13/12 Fri
        But I have a house to put in order!!! (NT) -- PeggyB, 14:49:33 01/13/12 Fri
So no objections to the schedule? If not, I'll pull my spreadsheet together. :-) (NT) -- Lil, 14:24:45 01/13/12 Fri
- Sorry, we were so taken with the schedule that no one responded. Yes, looks good to me. I will be in and out of town, that's nothing new, but I will try to keep up as best I can with the discussions. (NT) -- Denise, 16:06:10 01/13/12 Fri
- Schedule looks grand, Nalana - thank you again for sharing your organizational skills with us! (NT) -- E, 08:24:50 01/14/12 Sat
  - Elaine, that means a lot to me for you to say that. Mostly my organizational skills are seen as nagging. Thats probably some Mom rule: "Mom Rule 127...." LOL (NT) -- Lil, 09:24:54 01/14/12 Sat
    - I remember, once upon a time, when I was thought to be organized. *sigh* (NT) -- PeggyB, 16:25:34 01/14/12 Sat
      - Me, too, Peggy. Those days are sure gone for me now! (NT) -- E, 12:41:15 01/15/12 Sun
- Works for me too! (NT) -- MaryC in KY, 09:46:34 01/14/12 Sat
OK, I just finished the Hunger Games...how can I stop? Must read the rest!!! (NT) -- PeggyB, 21:36:04 01/17/12 Tue
- DS informs me we only own the first book, and there is a huge wait list at the library. Back to Ram I go. (NT) -- PeggyB, 08:35:22 01/18/12 Wed
