Book clubs in the news

Fun meeting at Sarah's-- thanks for the turkey and great hospitality, as usual, Sarah! I saw this amusing article on the antics and trials of book clubbers, and thought you all might like it too. Not that WE have any ayatollahs hijacking the discussions!

I was thinking (and I think we mentioned at the last meeting) that it would be nice to line up books a few months out. I think it would definitely help us stick with books that get better reviews, are available in paperback, and maybe get some high-quality literature (not that we haven't thus far!)

Why don't you leave your picks in the comments, and I'll post a full list later? And Faezeh, feel free to give your other book club info about us, and Sarah, definitely clue in the drinking group. We're set for our July meeting, but we've got the rest of the year ahead.

Welcome to the blog!

We'll get this all fitted to our needs soon, but in the meantime, feel free to start writing. Use this space to ask questions while you're reading, bring up topics for the group to consider before the next meeting, post coupons for the bookstore-- whatever you need! It would be great to stay abreast of local events that might interest the group: readings, book signings, new stores, great coffee shops, chili cook-offs-- you get the idea. Enjoy.
