Hey, everyone! It seems that the Book Recommendations thread has done wonderfully, and I'd like to thank those who are taking the time out to share their favourite lit with the class
I was wondering if perhaps we could start some sort of a "club" for it? Set a date, pick a book, and have that peice read and ready for discussion by said date? Whoever "hosts" the book can perhaps pose a debatable question or two to get the mindcranks working.
As for reading timeframe, I don't think it's impossible to say two weeks, but maybe improbable; I also think that a month would probably take too long; perhaps a compromise at 3 weeks would be best?
I know that I often have a difficult time sitting down and reading unless it's compulsory or the internet's out (darn that internet!) so I think this could be a great gateway.
As far as literary genre, I think a fair mixup of books would be the obvious...
And as for the first one, I would like to put my name in the hat as the host, and pick something out of the Recommendations thread that I've never picked up before. Of course, nothing's going to be decided without at least a few people interested. That said, anyone who would like to throw some input down on the idea of a literary group, please do!
