Greetings and salutations to the very handsome and beautiful people of Read Philippines. :D

The idea of members meeting up to
    hang out,
    get to know each other,
    discuss an agreed upon book,
    talk about the forum
    lend/swap books with each other
    or all of the above
has been mentioned on more than a couple of occasions.

Personally, I'm all for this idea. We are, unfortunately, a dying breed and I think it would be nice if we could just stare lovingly into each other's eyes. :lol: Just kidding. I think it would be nice if we could do at least one of the things listed above. :mrgreen:

And so, I would like to respectfully ask the members to sound off on this idea. Let me know if you're for it or not. 8-)

If you are interested, please jot down your stomping grounds. For example, mine would be Manila (anywhere along Espana blvd and Taft avenue) and Quezon City (Quezon ave, SM North EDSA/Trinoma). ^^ This will make sorting out the logistics a little easier.

Thank you and hope to hear for you soon~

Hi Jem!
So great of you to start this off. Since I'm in the visayas region I could hang out with you through skype...hehehe! I am always up for discussing about a book :)

Hi Jem!!! You are really a GEM for initiating this! I'm from Ortigas area and I would like to suggest this great cafe that's PERFECT for us. Here are the photos. Once you see the books you'll know what i mean! This Cafe is called Cafe 1771 at El Pueblo, beside Racks and McDo, along Julia Vargas Street :)
