Who will cry when you die

by Robin Sharma

The Origin

Hazelene came up with this idea of organizing a Reading Group or Book Club(as I would like to call it)and posted he idea on Facebook(this is the most active Social networking site today). A few enthusiasts replied back and accordingly we decided to meet on Wednesday(25th Jan 2012). The attendes with a short description of each:-

Hazelene:- An architect by profession who is a  SAHM(Stay at Home Mom) currently to 2 beautiful kids (Rahul & Aadi). She did not read much in her earlier days and has only lately started it. She was blown away by 2 books in particular ,  The Secret
and Antomy of the Spirit
We hope to hear more from this beautiful lady in the coming weeks.

Gayathri:- Another working professional who quit her job when her beautiful daughter Nidhi was born. She does hope to go back to working some day. She likes to read inspirational books like Swami Vivekanada

Seema: A post-graduate in Computers and currently working mom. She is the mother of a naughty 2 year old. Loves reading fiction and is passionate about reading good books that interest her.

Sneha: The wonderful mother of 2 kids who decided to quit when her 2nd baby was born has been key in organizing many a event @Broadmoor. She loves to read books as her philosophy is that books always teach you something.

Nilakshi: She is the mother of a 7 month old who decided to quit to take care of her lovely daughter. She loves to read books and has been part of a Book Club before. She is willing to venture out and try different books.

So we all met, spoke about what type of books we like/dislike, how we want to conduct these meetings going forward and so what we decided is that we will pick a book to read.. We will  read a couple of chapters at home, then circulate among our group so we all get a turn at reading and then discuss it in our alternate sessions keeping  a gap of 15 days.

The book chosen this week is "Who will cry when you die" by Robin Sharma
