Greek Chat Book club
The discussion about Pledged brought me the idea that we might have a Greek Chat book club. It would only be for true Greek Chat Addicts of course 
But we would figure out which book to read, read it and then chat about it.
Anyone interested? Anyone have any ideas how we would pick the book or whatever?

James I was just thinking of this earlier today.
It would definitely need to be a guy and girl friendly book.
Fast Food Nation is an awesome book. But it's non fiction. What kind of guidelines would we set up?

I was thinking about this last night...I would love to participate.
I really have no suggestions as to how to pick the books...I'm currently reading 4ish so I could suggest one of those!

Depends on the book..I, too, am an avid reader. How about Founding Mothers? Non-fiction and sort of a follow-up to John Adams...

This would be fun - of course I am a fiction-only junkie, so I probably would have to have the fiction book club going
I did this once at my former job -- the first (and last) book we read was the Poisonwood Bible -- one of the Oprah deals. GOOD LORD what a horrible book!! It reminded me of Legends of the Falls (movie) where everyone either died - or wished they would die!

I think that in honor of Troy we should all re-read (or read, if you haven't done so) The Iliad.

I want to play! As far as choosing books go, I could just send you all my required summer reading lists for American Southern Lit and The Short Story, and then you can forward me your reactions, along with a detailed plot summary and character analysis. Brilliant idea!

I would definitely be game for a book club. It's great to have someone to discuss a book with after you read it.

I have been getting away from reading as much as I used to, and hate that I have. I would definitely be up for it.
