Today I'll be linking up with Heather at Blonde...Undercover Blonde for my very first Book Club Friday. I was just thinking to myself I should start blogging about books because 1.) I absolutely LOVE reading and 2.) now that school is finally over I actually have the time to do it!
Much to my despair, I recently found out that one of my new favorite TV shows, GCB, has been cancelled by ABC. I was pretty surprised by this because I know a lot of people that love and watch the show religiously...no pun intended :) On the other hand, some people think the show is a little controversial and offensive but personally, I think it's supposed to be taken with a grain of salt and enjoyed for it's entertainment value. Anyway, I'm really hoping a different channel will pick it up because it's such hilarious show and the entire cast is sheer perfection. So why you might ask does this have anything to do with Book Club Friday? Well because I decided since I can't watch GCB anymore, I'll read it! The show on ABC was inspired by Kim Gatlin's novel, Good Christian Bitches. I'm only a couple chapters in but it seems like the show followed the book pretty closely, most of the characters have the same names too! I'm SO excited to read the rest of the book and I'll definitely let y'all know what I think about it.
Has anyone read Good Christian Bitches? If so, let me know if you liked it or not!

I really enjoyed GCB too and felt like everyone I knew was watching it, so I am surprised it was canceled. But I guess I'll have to be like you and try out the book.
ReplyDeleteAnd welcome to book club Friday! It's a lot of fun and a way to discover new books. Although sometimes it's hard to keep up with all the ones you want to read.
Well thank you! I'm so excited to start. Oh I bet, plus I already have a 30 book wish list on my nook :) but thankfully I'll have more free time to finish them all this summer!
DeleteI have this book on my to read list as well especially since I live in Dallas. I had no idea they were canceling the show. That surprises me!
ReplyDeleteI loved GCB, and I am so sad to see it go too. I had the book on my nightstand forever and never got around to reading it, but I guess now is a good time as ever!

I didn't hear that they're canceling the show! I hadn't started watching it though...
ReplyDeleteSo glad you linked up!
I was beyond devastated to hear that GCB was cancelled. Seriously, how am I supposed to pretend I'm Southern on SUnday nights?
ReplyDeleteI feel ya girl! I guess I'm going to have to live vicariously through the book now :)
