Default Re: If we can have a film club then surely a book club is also viable

Yep, all sounds good mate.

I think 1 month is a good time scale (fast readers wont have to wait too long to discuss if they finish early, slow readers can discuss as much as they've read or chapter by chapter), but I do think we need some sort of rigidity as otherwise i can imagine things will become a bit dosjointed.

Perhaps we shoudl start with a shortish book first time round. This will a) give us all a gentle introduction and b) finish earlyish so we can run it calendar month -> calendar month. People reckon thats a good idea? Just think it's better to know where we all stand . . .

I'm looking forward to it, I generally read non fiction or historical fiction so looking forward to reading somethign a bit different.
