Real Simple Magazine online: No Obligation Book Group!
Now, obviously this is in NO WAY suggested as a replacement for our book group, but I really love this idea of a no obligation book group. You can read along, take a peak at what others have to say, and leave your own comment. No meetings, no deadlines. Move at your own pace. I will definitely be checking it out (probably because I will feel the need to comment quite a bit).
(From RealSimple.com) Here’s how it works:
1. Every month, Real Simple’s editor chooses four great books
2. You get to vote on which should be read for that month.
3. During the month, the editor will read along with you, posting her/his own insights about the book and guiding the discussion.
4. You can chime in with your own comments or just follow along…no obligation. Nice, isn’t it?
5. Every month a different book will be featured — but you can always go back and comment on older discussions or previous books.
The first book club leader will be Real Simple’s Managing Editor Kristin van Ogtrop. Click here for the four books she’s selected. You can vote until August 31. The book club begins here on September 3, with a new book club starting every month. (Bookmark this page!).
