Moving the clocks ahead for Daylight Savings Time has given me personal jetlag. I am not kidding. Tuesday morning my son yelled "goodbye" as he walked out the door at 7:15 and I responded with a hearty "bye," but then I wondered how that was part of my dream. I then realized he was up and at 'em and I was still clocking pillow time. At night I am wide awake and thus getting an extra hour of reading done. I somehow need to shift this pattern, but since I am a natural night owl I see myself moving the hour in five-minute increments.

A few months ago I realized that while we update ReadingGroupGuides.com monthly, there always is news or interesting tidbits and ramblings that I want to share with our readers throughout the month. I also recognized that, over the last eight years since we launched this website, we have come to know a very interesting group of readers, authors, book club facilitators, librarians, booksellers and publishing contacts who have shared their own ideas for what make a reading group something that gives people both joy and satisfaction.
