I have had real trouble finding one that's convenient and reads anything I'm interested in.<br /><br />As for the book selection, one of the reasons I joined a book club originally was to get out of a reading rut - they are great for making you read new things.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07315622067612799162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-5645730527500814752009-05-03T00:19:00.000+02:002009-05-03T00:19:00.000+02:00I was asked to join a book club a year or so ago. ...I was asked to join a book club a year or so ago. I almost quit at one point but have hung in there. For me, it's good because it forces me to read some books I undoubtedly would not, otherwise. And I do enjoy the conversation! "Honor Yourself" by Patricia Spadaro is a great book for book clubs, because it comes with a guide, which is VERY handy. She talks <A HREF="http://www.practicalspirituality.info/About-Honor-Yourself-by-Patricia-Spadaro.html" REL="nofollow"> practical spirituality,</A> to boil it down. This book is about giving and receiving, and setting boundaries. It combines wisdom from the world's great sages with real-life stories and practical tools to create a guide to honor yourSELF, so you can give your greatest gifts to the ones you love, plus to your community and the wider world. <br /><br />Enjoy your next book club book!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12553309379795237911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-92202728137865103322009-05-02T19:57:00.000+02:002009-05-02T19:57:00.000+02:00Glad you at least got a good discussion out of it!...Glad you at least got a good discussion out of it!
