I'd be interested in a format suggested by the author, but I think I'm the only one in my book club that would. The fact that I'm regularly reading and talking about books with a group without any particular literary bent is something very valuable to me, even if we don't mine every hidden treasure of the books we read.
- dorchadas 6y agoSeriously. I would absolutely be interested in a book club like that, especially one that went through the "Great Books" or whatever...But I'm also the only one of my friends who really reads outside genre fiction so sadly no chance of that happening soon unless I can find one at the local university that's open to the public.
- wrsh07 6y agoYou could start or join a remote bookclub / study group Especially given current circumstances, this would possibly help you meet the analysis goal
- dorchadas 6y agoAye, but I've found those generally tend to have worse engagement over time than in-person ones. Much worse, which is the problem. Though maybe I am being too pessimistic about it; might look around and see what there is to be had. I'd love one with a more academic bent.
