10/15: peter pan

Chris and I are hosting a discussion group about Peter Pan at the end of the month. We read it out loud to each other years ago and loved it. Today I've been re-reading it, and it really is so good. We're not reading it out loud to each other this time, but for some of the afternoon we were each reading our own copy on the porch, and we'd look up and remark on some funny bit.

I know a couple who have been together since forever. Early in the relationship they got into the habit of "tooth-flossing books" -- taking turns reading to each other while the other flosses. It turns out they get through several books each year in just that way....

I don't know how Chris and I fell out of the habit of reading aloud in a regular way. Now we're more likely to read separate copies of the same book at the same time and then have a private "book club" about it. I like how your flossing-book friends have found an unexpected pocket of time...who knew those minutes could mount up like that?
