You are all more than welcome to join. We're all one big happy family.Hi all,
Sandchigger and I are going to do a book club reading of Ian M. Banks' novel Feersum Endjinn. Id like to start on Monday the 13th, so as to give everyone who needs to order it time to get a copy from Amazon.
For those of you who have it, please don't get started in making comments without the rest of us. I have it, but not everyone does. Ill start the first post on Monday. If you guys want to start before Monday, just post here so we can see what the general feeling is.
I'd like to do this the way that we did A Case of Conscience; with everyone reading at their own speed, jumping into and out of the conversation as they best see fit. There will of course be some spoilage, but I think its really artificial to have everyone read two chapters, or something, then come back and post, and then read the next assignment. For those of you who do not read quickly, this is your chance to jump the gun and get ahead. Maybe that way everyone will finish at about the same time.
Im off on business til Thursday. Ill see you all then. Actually, I gotta go now, so would someone please paste this into Jacurutu and T(A)U?
Thanks,

As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Hypatia approaches one.

Take a look at the book club thread for A Case of Conscience. That is how we will run this one.
Mandy, let us know if you dont have the book by Saturday.

Bought this today. But I'm now actually getting into my current book quite a lot. Will see how it goes - been meaning to read some Banks for a while now anyway.
