:: The Walking Book Club: August (Late!)

August 12, 2014

I’m so sorry I am running late with this! To be honest, I was not sure if anyone was playing along. Yesterday’s post showed me that many of you are! Cool! Thanks for sharing that!

This month’s book for The Walking Book Club is The One Plus One by Jojo Moyes. You can snap it up on the newly-Amazon-acquired Audible here. Audible gives you a free credit each month if you join, so you might not even have to pay for this book at all. How ace.

The idea of The Walking Book Club is to use the time you spend walking (to work, down the shops, to the gym) to ‘read’ a book. It can take a little bit of adjusting to learn to concentrate on the move, but I promise you will get there.

Download this month’s book here.

The Walking Book Club is on Facebook too, in case you want to have a chat about our book as you go (or when you are done!)

Do you want to join in?!

x Pip

    Hello Pip!

    I’m one of those quiet reading people (sorry about that!) but I just wanted to say thanks for the walking book club. I’m a bit late as I’m still going on last month’s ‘On Looking’ which I really enjoyed. Thanks so much for the idea and I’m definitely going to keep playing along. Just have to keep up!

    I love the new blog design. And, thanks to your videos I just finished my first crochet blanket!

    Just want you to know how much I LOVE this idea. I’m not playing along because when I am walking inevitably it is in the company of an eight month old baby and a two year old girl and there is a CONSTANT stream of chatter and “What you doing Mummy?” going on that precludes listening to anything else. But I think it is brilliant and creative and mindful and EXACTLY what I would have been into before I had a toddler. Love it love it love it.
