Richard Russo.  If you zip back through the posts, there's a link that let's you preview a few pages.  It sounds like it could really pull you in.


I'll do the best I can, but we are hosting this weekend so there is a lot to do.

Zim-


We are holding your toes to the fire.


Then maybe poke you with a sharp stick.


Naw, just kidding I don't have a stick long enough to reach.


Straight Men by Richard Russo


Get it, read it be ready to discuss.

No problem Dylan! I picked up the book last night at our local used bookstore - I'm through the Prologue, and the chapters are relatively short. Looking forward to chatting about it!

Your welcome, Dylan.


Can't wait to start the discussion on Tuesday!  Should we each come w/ a question or something?  How will it work?

At this rate, I am going to be so behind.  I probably won't be able to pick up my copy until Sunday.  I'm broke and have to finish altering a dress to get some cash!

I think the first question will be, where are you at in the book and do you like it?

For Tuesday, just let everyone know how far you are page number wise.


As a rule, for those that are further ahead, try not to give plot away.


We will go at a comfortable pace for everyone.  We can set a discussion schedule once we know where everyone is.


 


Thanks...Dylan
