    Woohoo!
    We used to have one years ago. We picked a book - something easy to start with and then we had some time to read it and then we had a thread running where we could/would talk about it..
    It would mean that we picked different books/authors which was really cool..

    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I guess it would depend on what we read.

    I'm in if the books are interesting!

    I’d guess, knowing our lot, there’ll be something to suit everyone

    well as long as it's not fantasy, or stuff written years and years ago impossible to understand, I guess I'm good

    It's not something you'd have to join in with every week if you weren't interested in the books chosen. And I'm sure we'd choose books the majority agree on

    Interesting idea even though I rarely read books (apart from Readers Digest) these days I'll dive in if the fancy takes me.
    77 and counting, less of the "Old" call me "Mike"

    Jaquaia, I think it will be interesting to see how the book club chooses their book (will the person running choose, will we get to vote on a few, etc)

    maybe a good idea would be a diffrent theme each time- so romance one time, then fantasy, etc
