The Book Club

Good Morning BookExpressers,

This morning I would like to introduce the Book Express Book Club Wiki

This Wiki is for YOU. It is a chance for you to circumnavigate the GlobalVillage of Literature, land back safely and reconnect with your own Central Coast LocalVillage.

The BookExpress Book Club Wiki is an interactive place. We want to know what you are reading and what you are making of it! Was it any good, or was utter rubbish?

The wiki is divided into Genres. So just click on the genre of the title you have read and check- out the reviews. If there are no reviews on the book that you have read, add the book and your comments to the list and wait to see what other readers have to say about it.

Welcome to the BookExpress Book Club


Happy reading and reviewing.

PS Pease observe Wiki ettiquette or "Wikiquette".

Book Express 101















A Lone Wagon in the Pre Dawn
Thousands of commuters leave the Central Coast bound for work in Sydney...and they leave early.

Shortly after this photo was taken, ie at about 5.30am, the rush hour commences, commuters descend upon the library wagon, and the fun starts!

Reading Tastes are eclectic! Thrillers, mysteries and romances fly off the wagon. So too do history, philosophy and popular science books. The commuters' appetites are voracious!

The rush hour over, all commuters at work or en route thereto, the Book Express Wagon is packed up and transported back to the library.

A Brand New Day

Good Morning Book Express Patrons and Good Morning World,



Book Express has entered the Blogoshere!


This morning I am blogging to you from a small coastal outpost on the planet that the locals like to think of as "God's Own Country". When I work out how to put in the flicker map, you will see that this mighty outpost is actually Woy Woy.



I hope that this space will be a place for Book Express patrons, ("Expressos", "Expressers"??) to congregate in Cyberspace and check out all that is wonderful at Book Express.



The potential for information exhange here is Big!



The following is a list of just a few possibilites:



We could post:



New Titles at Book Express, "Expresser" Book Reviews, Cool Web Links, Poems and "Thoughts for the Day".... and if you let me, Patron profiles and photos... How can you resist?

Looking forward to connecting (virtually),

The Team at Book Express.
