I thought a few of you might be interested in checking out this site. It's based on the concept of ghost letters, if you've ever heard of that before. Creative Letter Guild It's a new club that's just getting started, and you can "be" a character - famous or not - and write letters to...

Thank you all for your replies, links, and suggestions. Now that I think about it, 20 would probably be a high estimate of the # of people who might join my book club. It would probably end up being more like 8-10, and I realize that would be more ideal. I'm still in the "thinking-about-it"...

Hey folks! I just thought I'd drop in, and I found this nice, cozy thread for a boring Saturday night! I'm watching the news (and wishing I was in the northeast USA where they are experiencing some lovely snow) and just surfing the 'net. I waste a lot of time surfing, when I really should be...

Hi everyone, I am thinking about starting a Book Club at work. I would like to get your feedback on suggestions and opinions about this idea. It would be limited to my department, which consists of about 100 people. Of course, not all of them would join, probably only 20 or so, I would...

How about The Secret History by Donna Tartt? I just started this one and can already tell it's going to be an interesting book. I've read many good reviews about this one, and I'd love to be able to discuss it with others here. :)

Is there a certain scene in a movie that just gets to you every time? Here are a few of mine: The Patriot - When the youngest child, Susan, runs to her father, Samuel Martin (played by Mel Gibson) and begs him not to go. Scent of a Woman - The Tango scene. Wow! LOTR: Return of the King...

I personally don't think I'll ever grow up. I have my responsibilities as an adult (job, family, church, etc.), but I will never deny myself or others around me the enjoyment of just playing and reverting back to the pleasure that comes with being a child. I'm almost 27, and I still sleep with...

Sounds like an itchy yellow skin disease! :eek:

Apparently, we're related! :)

Tigerlily Bramble of Willowbottom Tigerlily... I could get used to that :)

I think Sean Astin would make a great Holden Caufield. What do you think?

Aww...what sweet memories! I remember the first "real" book I read. It's still a children's book, but it's 178 pages long, so that was pretty significant for a 10-year-old girl! Sadly, I don't remember much about the book (Surprise Island by Gertrude Chandler Warner), except that it was...

Was it Doomsday Book by Connie Willis?

I hope someone knows the answer to this, because it sounds like a great book! I'm fascinated with the bubonic plague.

Ooh, good one! I love Julianne Moore, and the book is fabulous as well.
