So we've been very lax this past while about running the book club. But we're aiming for change. Along with that I figure it is good to reiterate the rules, along with an adjustment or two:

Re: Choosing a Book:

We will choose the book for each discussion. However, a new book recommendations thread will be made. If you want a book to be considered you must post the title, author, and a few reasons why we should choose that for the book club. We will look to that thread for inspiration, but may not restrict ourselves to choosing a book from that thread. A list of previous book we have read will be at the bottom of this post.

Re: Discussion:

Please refrain from one or two word posts as this does not demonstrate your understanding or grasp of the topics at hand. We want to hear your thoughts and ideas and simply saying "I agree" does not convey those. The purpose of a book club is to discuss and without your contributions we can have no discussion!

With all of that said, happy reading!
