Should arrive in 2-3 weeks depending on where they have to get it from (NZ is fastest, Australia isn't too bad, US takes a while...)

(You can ignore my nagging emails then.) :)
I'd say yes, since there are some people who haven't read it yet.
Do you think it's ok to go ahead with the book club schedule as planned? With Ms. Lott being a guest expert in late July?
Big ole hug to you, Dr. Bob. :))))

Doesn't the end of July sound better for Deborah Lott to be a guest expert so that everyone can have a chance to read?
I don't want to answer for everyone.

That is so cool! Now we are setting a standard for every book we'll read. We'll have to insist on an author discussion as well :)
Oprah has nothing on us!

Dinah, that's great! What a great idea you had, and way to follow through.
Thanks Dr. Bob for making it happen.

Yes, end of July makes sense.
Dinah, you are amazing!

Late July is perfect for me - my therapist will be on vacation. That's when I carry her book around with me anyway!

(Probably annoyingly so)
I've been wriggling all over with excitement and thumping my leg on the floor.
I'm glad the timing works out well for you. I think that's a perfect thing to be thinking about when those darn old therapists desert us to go have a relaxing time. :)
I brought "In Session: The Bond Between Women and Their Therapists" in to my session today to share my excitement with my therapist. We ended up talking about how many of us thought it should be required reading, along with the Psychology Board. Except for him of course, re. the Psychology Board. He's ok with my talking about him here, not always nicely. He says it's good that I have somewhere to process therapy. So I pointed out the part in the book that said that. :)) He seemed sort of interested, and there's at least a snowball's chance in h*ll that he'll read it himself someday.
But here's the other part that I'm soooo pleased with me about. Get ready?!!!
I told him I couldn't loan him my copy because he never returned my copy of that book that I lent him when he agreed to read it for his usual session fee per hour because it was so important to me. I thought I'd never ever ever ever have the nerve to mention that!!!
Ooooh, my pleasure with myself is ever so great this week. If you add it to my pride at the hard work I did in therapy, I just may become insufferable. I haven't felt this dang good about myself since my Wunderkind years.

Way to go Dinah - what was his reaction when you mentioned the book? Did he sheepishly admit to putting the book in a pile of forgotten reading material?

I didn't open it yet, because I was absorbed with my school work, but it's here!
We are here, we are here, we are here!

I'm so excited to have Lott be a guest!!!! I love this book. I have about worn my copy out from all the reading. I wish more books were written from the clients perspective.
Maybe we should all get together and compose a book with our experience of our therapy or therapists.LadyBug

My copy hasn't arrived yet, though I ordered it ages ago. Sigh. But I can catch up.

Rats.
I'd rather everyone had their books in, but I guess the intro and chapter one aren't that long, so anyone who joins us along the way can probably catch up.
In fact that's probably important for those friends who are just about to discover Babble... and us. We'd love to have them join in.
I'll try to post excerpts so you can follow?

We'd love to have them join in.Well, if my experience reading Yalom is anything to go by, I'll probably read Lott cover to cover as soon as I get it. Then I guess I can re-read it more slowly. So catching up shouldn't be a problem.

That would be great. Thanks.
I'm really looking forward to this!
