EDCMOOC discussion

Welcome new members to our unofficial EDCMOOC reading group. We read a book (short story preferably) each month and discuss it, via Twitter #edcmchat, on the first Saturday of each month (or Sunday depending on where in the world you are).

November: I Love You Like Water by Angela Slatter (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...) and will be discussing it on Twitter on Saturday 7th December 21:30(GMT) via the #edcmchat tag.

December: Minority Report by Philip K Dick, discussing on Saturday 4th January

January - please vote https://www.goodreads.com/poll/list/9...

If you want to add suggestions to the group, please do - either via the Bookshelf or the Polls. We're reading short stories at the moment - but any suggestions welcome. The themes of the group arose from the utopian/dystopian/transhumanism/education themes from EDCMOOC.

Note: the 'bookshelf' will normally have the current book displayed. The current short story (I Love You Like Water) isn't actually in GoodReads so doesn't appear!

For info:

January's read is The Time Machine by HG Wells

November 2014's read

New readers - we are reading Unready to Wear, a short story by Kurt Vonnegut for an online Twitter chat on Saturday December 6th.

Just join us at 21:30 (UK time) for an hour using the #edcmchat hashtag in twitter.

We will put up a poll for December's read soon.

Short stories are good, but anything related to the themes of the group is good too!
