Little Women Read Along Kick Off



Welcome to our Little Women Read Along! Let's start this thing, yes?

Thanks to all of those who have signed up to participate. If you'd still like to join us, there's plenty of time, just let us know by linking up on this post.

Here are the plans for the month:

READING SCHEDULE with DISCUSSION QUESTION POSTS

Questions will be posted on the date listed... feel free to answer the questions on your blog that day or in the days following. A link will be provided so we can all easily find participants.

Read chapters 1-17 by February 1-10 with the discussion post Feb. 10 on Suey's blog
Read chapters 18-33 by February 11-19 with the discussion post Feb. 19 on Kami's blog
Read chapters 34-47 by February 20-29 with the discussion post Feb. 29 on Jenni's blog

TWITTER CHATS

We'll be using Twitter for an ongoing discussion. Many of us like to post quotes and thoughts in real time as we read. Please feel free to do the same. Follow with #LittleWomenRAL and join in the discussion...give comments and feedback as you read! (We've created a Twitter list with all the participants which will also make it easier to follow everyone and see what we're saying. Be sure your'e on the list!)

We will also have scheduled chats in conjunction with each discussion post as follows:

Wednesday, Feb. 10 at 5:00 pm Mountain (Take note! This has been bumped a couple hours earlier from our original post.)
Friday, Feb. 19 at 7:00 pm Mountain
Monday, Feb. 29 at 7:00 pm Mountain

The best way to follow a  Twitter chat is to use a program like Tweetdeck, Twubs, or TweetChat in order to isolate that particular hashtag. Let us know if you have more questions about that! 

MOVIE WATCH ALONG

We love to end our read alongs by watching the movie together! If you are local, join us! If you aren't, you can still watch and join us on Twitter.  We plan to do this on Friday, March 4 starting at 7:00 p.m. Right now, we plan to watch the Winona Ryder/Christian Bale version.

Oh, we also have a Pinterest board dedicated to the read along. Check it out if you are into that sort of thing!

And so... what are you waiting for? Get reading!

  2. Oh, I forgot about the Pinterest board. I don't usually pin much. I just like to see what others pin. And, I figure we can start the movie whenever, lol. 6:00, 7:00, 10:00, eh.
