Hi everyone. I hope by now you have all read The Tenderness of Wolves and enjoyed it as much as I did.

This is my first time leading a book discussion, so I'll just throw a few thoughts into the ring and see where this leads. Feel free to bring up any other topics you want to discuss.

Hi all,

As you've probably seen on the most recent post, best_of_five has chosen The Complete Works of Saki/ H.H. Munro. A collection of short stories.

Hi all,

I just pulled the next name out of the red mug, and best_of_five came out. So, Wilde, if you're interested in being responsible for choosing our next read however you choose to do so, let me know. If you're not interested and want to abdicate that responsibility, then let me know. Either way, if you don't comment here with a yay or nay, I'm going to ( Read more... )

Hey all!

Just a gentle reminder that the discussion on Water For Elephants, our second read is coming up. I need to pick up the pace, I'm only a quarter of the way through the book, but I'll get there. Hopefully, others are reading, or have read, it. I'm loving it so far.
