I went to my first book club tonight and it was fun eventhough I haven't read the story but the ladies were welcome and nice.
The Book club started in February this year if I'm not mistaken and become regular activity for some women who like to read and interested to get together and discuss about the reading. The book club is a regular meeting every week on Wednesday night. Since we would like to meet more often than once a month so the administrator choose short story instead of a book for the reading material. But usually in every book club meeting we are not only discuss about the reading but we also talk about anything. Mind you we are women, we like to talk!
Tonight's story is about Cactus. Don't ask me about the story because I haven't read it yet, because PW told me about the book club at 4pm when I was in the middle of my exercise and since we're going tonight so I have to cook dinner earlier. Yeah that was my excuse :)
Mr. Husband and I have different interests in what kind of book we read, yeah of course I like to read girly book (his nick name for my books) because there are no car chasing or fighting or blast or whatever men like to read. So this book club is a good opportunity for me to meet new people, share thoughts about the reading itself and about any things related to living in Pohnpei since I'm the newbie.
So who said that living in Pohnpei is boring?
It's so far than boring, there are a lot of stuff that I can do. Book club every Wednesday night, volunteer at the public library every Thursday, tennis lesson every Saturday, hiking every Sunday and functions yes lots of functions.
I will write more about my other activities in the coming posting, it's my bed time now. Ciao!

Hi Ecky. Have you read Haruki Murakami's "Birthday Stories"? It's a collection of Murakami's favorite birthday stories, with one story by himself. I'm reading it now, and so far I liked it.
Should be interesting to discuss this in your book club.
Greetings from jammed and flooded Jakarta! :)
@ Waraney: No I haven't read the book, we actually just read short stories in my book club so we can have weekly meeting not monthly. I will get that book from Amazon if they have it. Thanks for the reco :)
