[asmb] Book Club discussion

It's late. Very late. I'm not sure if anyone will be nominating though. le sigh

I dun think this ship has sunk.

I'll think about it and nominate something. I just need to think a bit.

I'm gonna nominate outside of the fiction genre and go with - Aristotle and an Aardvark. Simple philosophy concepts, well, simple intros, but maybe we need something like this for discussion.


Aristotle and an Aardvark Go to Washington: Understanding Political Doublespeak Through Philosophy and Jokes

super awesome book.

Aw, I don't think this place has sunk. I'm just a lurker in general and health problems have made that all the more obvious. I'm still stopping by here almost every day - I'm totally going to meet my 2011 reading goal after all! :D

Anyway, nominating time!
"Pretending You Care : The Retail Employee Handbook" by Norm Feuti.
Don't let the title completely fool you, while it's informative enough on retail things, it's sold in the humor section for a reason.

Same here Katt. My health is being wonky again but I still stop by almost every day. Now I just need to concentrate on what I had in mind to nominate. I know I had a few, they're just not popping into my rather sluggish brain. I'll edit in.

Also, sorry to here you have problems. It Sucks.

Edit: Ok, one of the authors came back to me. I nominate The Lady Elizabeth by Alison Weir. She's a respected historian so its not a lot of romantic drivel like a lot of books on this subject are. I was torn between nominating this and her other novel, Innocent Traitor, about Lady Jane Grey but Elizabeth seemed like she'd be a more popular choice.

I don't think the ship has sunk either, I've been sick for the better part if two weeks so I haven't read much or gotten online either. I'm finally finishing to good omens today. I think I'll nominate a classic this month, how about Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. That would be a fun read filled with silly discussions afterwards

Poll is up!
