Welcome!

Welcome to the North Millville Book Club site (or at least that's what I'm calling it for purposes of a blog name & address). Here you will find our current schedule, past books read, the current book suggestions list, and books that have been removed from the list for lack of votes, but are good books to consider.

If you have any books that wouldn't be right for book club, (LDS publisher, only in hardback, wouldn't make for a good discussion, or any other reason you don't think they would right for book club) you can list them here. Look at the list of tags to know how to tag certain items to help us find what we are looking for.

Whenever you post, please sign your name at the end so we know who is writing, sometimes the "names" we use on the internet are not as clear to everyone who we are. Thanks!

"I Am a Mother" by Jane Clayson Johnson

How do we get women to stop saying, "I'm just a mother"? Or, "I used to be such and such, but now I'm just a mother"? When Jane Clayson Johnson, former network news correspondent and co-host of The Early Show attended a gathering of nearly fifty LDS couples, she was shocked to hear the women in the group describe themselves as "just a mother." She had not expected Latter-day Saint women to have the same undervalued view of moetherhood as the rest of the world. Jane's fascinating personal story and unique insights will inspire women to raise their awareness and perception of this important--and often difficult--role.
