Blog Friends Book Club




Okay so our first book club choice was a total fail {in my opinion}. We searched long and hard for a lite summer read. There are soooo many books to choose from and each book description leads us to another book. Somehow we narrowed it down to a few and decided on . . .

Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire

via

 Description from Amazon:

"The new Abby Abernathy is a good girl. She doesn’t drink or swear, and she has the appropriate percentage of cardigans in her wardrobe. Abby believes she has enough distance between her and the darkness of her past, but when she arrives at college with her best friend America, her path to a new beginning is quickly challenged by Eastern University’s Walking One-Night Stand. Travis Maddox, lean, cut, and covered in tattoos, is exactly what Abby needs—and wants—to avoid. He spends his nights winning money in a floating fight ring, and his days as the charming college co-ed. Intrigued by Abby’s resistance to his charms, Travis tricks her into his daily life with a simple bet. If he loses, he must remain abstinent for a month. If Abby loses, she must live in Travis’ apartment for the same amount of time. Either way, Travis has no idea that he has met his match."

 I am excited to start this book and I even decided to download it from my Nook PC instead of heading to the book store. I only had to pay $4, so if this book sucks ass like the last one at least I am only out a few dollars {I have a feeling it's going to be VERY good}.

We are going to finish and review this book on August 6{ish}. Sharee and I would love to offer a link up for all of you who would like to join in on the reading club and review it with us {fingers crossed you want to}.

So go out and get the book {now} and come back and let us know your thoughts in August! As always we welcome any book suggestions {unless you enjoyed our 1st book choice- then I will question your reading judgement}.

P.S. Until Fifty Shades came along I had never really read love stories {at all} maybe it is just a phase or possibly a summer thing, but I am VERY open to any book suggestions.
