Lightbulb Book Club

Any interest out there to start a book club forum? We could all read the same book and discuss. I don't read nearly enough and this just might be the catalyst I need.

We could start with Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - easy, quick, and probably a re-read for many.

I've recently finished the whole series (and would be happy to flick through it again if need be) so count me in!

Re: Book Club

I love this idea. We tried once before to get one going, but nothing ever came of it. As soon as I'm back to work and the budget allows buying the required reading, I'd be happy to join in.

Bullet's trial was a farce. Can I get an AMEN?????

I found them all at my local library - maybe you could too!

Re: Book Club

That's cute....
I am aware of my library, but when I find a book I love, I have to own it. Thanks for the tip, though.

Re: Book Club

Good idea.

Keep intending to read HGG although I still haven't.

Re: Book Club

I like the idea of a book club but would probably give hitchhikers a miss, I don't really like sci fi.

Why don't you ask people to make suggestions and then have a poll, with the winning book being the one everyone reads? Just an idea
