Book Club Plan
Posted by: David Bunch
Here's the plan for the book club. I'm going to set up a group on Yahoo Groups and do a post with instructions on how to join. Once everyone has joined, we'll be able to post comments on a bulletin board and do live chats as well.
We're going to do this on a test run basis and see how it goes. My plan is to run it from June thru August (the summer) and then make a decision on how to proceed into the future. We'll do one book per month for those months.
I hope to post instructions on joining by the end of the week. In the meantime here's two important questions: what type of books do we want to read and, based on that decision, how do we narrow down to the book of the month?

I'm so excited! I've been thinking a little about the process of how to choose the books . . . part of it depends on how many participate, but perhaps we should start with a suggested book by the facilitator (you) and go ahead with it unless there are any strong objections to it. Then perhaps each member of the discussion group would have the chance to choose the book each month. That way, perhaps, we all would get to read something that maybe we wouldn't have thought of ourselves and could give us a chance to get out of our reader comfort zones.
