Book club, anyone interested? Let's begin already : )
Hello, everyone who is interested in the book club online. Sorry, I haven't been online for a while since I wasn't sure anyone was interested yet. Well, based on te messages these are the people who are interested( Spiro R., Annika B., Lise H. and lovely me of course). It doesn't matter which genre we start first, ok? I agree with Spiro, select title every 2-4 weeks depending on the size. Who wants to be first? I want to be last ok? because I have no idea what to read yet. So, I'll check these week so we know the order of the readings and then begin reading. I can't wait and read interesting books.

Take care
Georgina

Hello there,
How's everyone? O.K ladies [Georgina, Annika.B., Lisa.H.] I have a suggestion; the book I suggest is called "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran. I don't know if we should start reading as soon as you see this or whether we should all confirm first. Anyway this is my nomination it's not lengthy at all it's roughly about 80-90 pages long. O.K then there you have it and I look forward to hearing back from the gang. Kind regards,
Respectfully
Spiro.

Well, at the moment I read "URsua" is boring, but talk about Spain and Colombia, my country

Dear Angela,
How are you? I hope this letter finds you in good health.
So you want to talk about Spain?
I would like to talk to you about a very famous Chilean named Pablo Neruda. Are you familiar with his work? I cannot get enough of him, I especially like poem xx [puedo escribir los versos], I have memorised it in English, Spanish and now I'm working on the Greek version. I hope you have a fabulous day and I'll hear from you soon.

hi, it's a good idea, but, first we have to decide in which language reading, because the translation of a novel could compromise the understanding of the test.

maybe it could be better starting with an english classic something Virginia Woolf for example or Henry James...
