Future Book Club Meetings

Thursday, March 27th, 6:30pm- On Beauty by Zadie Smith

Thursday, April 24th, 6:30pm- The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho

Thursday, May 29th, 6:30pm- A Thousand Splendid Suns, by Kahled Hasseini

Thursday, June 19th, 6:30pm- Then We Came to the End, by Joshua Ferris

Please feel comfortable purchasing these books now as they will not be changed. (One option suggested byThe Meghans: www.half.com)

A few items to take note of:

1. Venues for our meetings will be decided prior to the event. If anyone has any suggestions, please fire off an email. My only request is we choose places with appropriate noise levels and a seating arrangement that is conducive to discussions. Oh, yes. And wine. There must always be wine.

2. As the book gets underway, people may volunteer to lead discussions or, at least, submit possible discussion questions which will be compiled and presented at the meeting. Regardless of how you choose to participate, it will be appreciated!

3. Please start thinking of friends/family members/classmates/ perfect strangers who appear easily manipulated who may want to participate in the book club. Now that we have dates and books picked in advance, I’m confident that some of the “new-group” confusion will subside. Just make sure that if you do locate someone who is interested, their email address makes it to Eren so they can be included on all B.C. correspondence.
