Next Meeting

Hi, congrats to us all for a fabulous start. And a special thank you to Xihu for all her selfless efforts and thougtful guidance, leading us to a better road and a higher ground!

Read a Chinese couplet last night, and I think it is relevant:

鱼无水则鳞枯，人无书则神索

Now, back to the topic of our next meeting:

I am enjoying reading what Xihu recommended, Jane Austen Book Club. I hope to finish it by this coming Sunday so whoever is interested in a quick read can borrow it from Xihu. I will bring it with me when we see each other on Sunday.

Xihu had done a great introduction of this book, and I thought I could follow it up by relaying some of the stories (very contemporary) to you. So, a book club story to our book club members, for 15 min or 20 min.

Here's a link that might be of interest some of you.

1。自我介绍 -- "To read or not to read" 是一个严肃的命题。答卷还令人满意.

• 行万里路，读万卷书的目标



• 少女的憧憬，残酷的现实，幻想的破灭



• 文学的禁锢，精神的饥渴

• Every book is created equal



• 书中有做人的道理；读书是消遣的活动

2。追风筝的人 -- Khaled Hosseini, Spinning Tales of a Faraway Home

• 菲儿review

3。The Jane Austen Book Club

• Who is Jane Austen -- Appeal of Jane Austen to morden readers --A Banner year for Jane Austen

热烈祝贺悠游读书会成立！

哇，侠女们突然该走性感路线啦！文武双全的侠女更诱人哦。祝悠游读书会越办越红火！！！

上路了

两年多前对'舞蹈’的共同爱好使我们走到一起，昨天大家怀着对书籍的记忆与迷恋坐在圆桌旁。两年多来，大家蹦蹦跳跳，说说笑笑，虽然每星期见面，只觉得来也匆匆，去也匆匆。昨天每人简短的发言好像打开尘封已久的记忆，使大家悄悄地窥探到每人心灵的一角。生活的阅历，个人的好恶使我们对阅读这一活动有着不同的诠释，界定了自己的兴趣和选择。但愿我们以“学习交流”为本，携手上路，前面是一个《美丽的新世界》:-)
