Book Hive Book Club - Whimsical Wings

I've joined the Facebook Group, The Book Hive Book Club and have agreed to be in the Whimsical Wings sub Book Group. There are 12 members , 12 books, 12 months. I chose the book, "Have You Seen Luis Velez?" (reviewed on my blog here) and since I love flamingos, my journal had to include at least one. Choosing the book to read was easy, the journal not so much. 

Some of the questions running through my head:

• Should the journal be thick? thin? It will have to be mailed with the book.
• How many pages per person to estimate for them to write on? I tend to be succinct.
• What if the pages run out? Should I include two journals?
• Should I include a bookmark? hint...hint. What if someone dog-ears my book or writes in it?
• Vacation is coming up soon, should I mail it before I leave? Get it all ready and wait til I come back? Give it to someone else to mail? 
• I've been told my handwriting is illegibile. I never learned to print (thank you Catholic School education); will they be able to read my scribble? It really would be odd to type my thoughts, print, then cut and glue? 
• What if the other readers don't like the book I've chosen? What if I don't like theirs? 
• These are legitimate questions, right? Am I overthinking all of this????

Decisions, Decisions...
