It is time for a new book at The Next Chapter with Jamie Ridler!
This time around the book is The Joy Diet: 10 Daily Practices for a Happier Life by Martha Beck. Jamie chooses such good books. The first time I got a lot out of Soul Coaching, the second time it was Wreck This Journal, which I enjoyed but didn't really participate in the blogging side of things. I was lucky enough to pick up The Joy Diet from my local library, which is always exciting. I live in Western Australia and I have to say, my state has one of the greatest library systems ever. Every time I want a book (and I want a LOT books from a lot of different interest areas) nine times out of ten it is somewhere in the state and they are happy to loan it out via my library that is 5 minutes down the road. So exciting for bookworm like me!
I'm hoping I'll be able to keep up with The Joy Diet. It's a busy time for me with lecturing, keeping up with my reading and assignments for two external university units (I'm really kicking myself that I signed up for them now...studying always sounds great, but the reality of it leaves something to be desired). But here's hoping!
I look forward to undertaking some projects (the vision cards sound fun!) and getting to know my fellow journeyers. Yay!

yeah! I'm a library lover too! Ours is right across the street & they know my little family there. although I bought a used copy of The Joy Diet for this.
I liked the vision cards too. Jamie's looked to be just big enough to create something on without being so big as to feel like a production. great idea!
so nice to meet you. :)
Count me in to the library lovers club...I'm there almost daily and the fact that we can order books to be put on hold through the internet makes me even happier!
This is my first book club with Jamie though I did wreck this journal through other blogger friends who were doing it. Read this book when it first came out and loved it so I'm looking forward to getting the most out of it now and getting to know so many who are on the journey together!
Just stopped by to say Hi! I look forward to our new adventure into Joy. Have a great week.
looking forward to journeying through "The Joy Diet" with you and our fellow dieters.
I love the library too, I just have to remember to return my books!
