Just wanted to give people a heads up on the kickoff to the new club with nominations starting on January 1, 2018, for discussion starting February 15, which will be the pattern in subsequent months. A new mission statement and general rules are in the pipeline, but here's the slate of themes for the first three months now, so you can start thinking about nominations. In subsequent months, there will be general input.
January 1 - A Rainbow of Reading: books with color-full associations. February 1 - The Book Came First: books adapted to screen. March 1 - It's All Relative: time-ly books. The idea for January and March is books somehow related to color and time, respectively; lateral thinking is fine, just so you can justify it. February is self-explanatory; no novelizations of screenplays, tie-ins to a screen franchise etc. Have fun with this. Any questions, just ask! Last edited by issybird; 12-28-2017 at 04:38 PM. |

Now we are all sitting here wondering what it is, and we are going to have to wait until 1 February to find out!

Ah, think of the fun trying to work it out, though. I've already told you where it was shown (in the US), and that it fits March as well. And that it's a mini-series, not a single program or series (such as Morse)

I love the themes. They are so much more fun than genre. I've had a good time finding possible nominations, noting both cost and length.

I really like The New Leaf as a name for the bookclub
With digital references in the book club name, like the Magic Book suggestion, I'm afraid it gives the wrong initial impression to the sort of books we read. |
