Online Book Club

Apologies for the poor sound quality! I'm gonna have to get a decent microphone soon!

Summary of the Book Club:

★A book will be announced at the beginning of the week.
★Each book club member reads the book and at the end of the week you post a Vlog (a video blog) reviewing the book.
★To apply for the book club, all you have to do is comment on this video!
★When you post your vlog at the end of the week, please post it as a video response to this video.
★After we've seen all the Vlogs we will then have an online book club discussion over on tinychat.
★The first book is Holes by Louis Sachar.
★Link to my review on Holes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t-EE1WMIcM
★Keep your reviews under 5minutes
★The Book Club is open to any age, any gender, any location- so please do get involved and share with your friends!

NB:
If you don't have a webcam or a microphone on your computer, please do join in, just write your review in text format and put it in a video using something like Windows Movie Maker. If you need any help, just ask and I'll help you as much as I can!

@timmmmyy1 Are you going to post your review? :) Need it before the end of the day if you're going to post it!

[quasi7373]

@Luvzi12 only got the book today, hopfully will read it in the morning.

i'll be a bit more together for the next book.

@quasi7373 Did you manage to read How To Train Your Dragon? If not, have you seen the movie? If so, it would still be awesome to have your input :)

[Luvzi12]

@quasi7373 If you go on my profile, the newest video on there talks about the last online book club and at the end it announces the next book. Vlogs need to be posted by 4pm Saturday 18th which is when the video chat takes place where all members go to tinychat and we discuss the book. Because we're looking at movie adaptations & books for both adults and children the books are usually quick & easy reads :)

@Luvzi12 got to sort out a camera, but definitally interested in getting involved with a book club. Whats the next book? Be good to know a few books in advance as i don't get to the bookshop too often.

[Luvzi12]

@timmmmyy1 Please don't forget to post your vlog on Holes when you finish it! Would still really love to hear your response to the book :)

[Luvzi12]
