Would anyone be interesting and willing to participate in a book club?

The genre would be from fiction, to essays, to science fiction and anything in between.

I would also have an interest, as long as we can voice our opinions if we believe a certain book sucks.

There's no way you could do that. THIS IS ATHOS' GERMANY!

>_> Lady G has a point....(But seriously yes, you CAN say a book SUCKS, though, I'd think everyone would agree that you'd have to give reasons as to why it sucks.

Purchase, rent, steal, all that matters is that you obtain the book. I'm thinking it works like this.


Every month:
(1) Vote on a book
(2) OBTAIN the book {rent, buy, steal}
(3) Discuss (chapter(s/ sections whatever it may be))
(4) Repeats steps 1-4.

*Also feel free to jump in if you have any better ideas*

Glad to have you aboard. So then those of us wishing to participate, we'll begin the book nomination process.

To nominate a book, give:
(1) Title
(2) Author
(3) Price
(4) Give a short statement about what the book is about or why it should be selected.

Everyone may suggest up to 2 titles for voting.

For example:

1. Fahrenheit 451 (Format: Mass-market paperback)
2. Ray Bradbury
3. $6.99 USD ($8.90 AUD)
4. This book is a classic. The story is set up in a world where firemen don't put out fires, but set them when ever someone is found to have books. A young fireman must make a difficult decision to help save his own community.


Once all the titles for the month have been posted, I'll change the poll to include the titles, and from there, we'll vote. If there is a tie, then we'll push one of the books to be voted for the next month. So, with that being said, feel free to start recommending.

Aye, that be the one.

I've heard much flack over the Dark Tower series, and I've noticed they made the Gunslinger into a graphic novel >__>

I'd think you're right on that one.

I think I'm too late on this

Not really. xD No one's recommended a book
