I’ve imagined book clubs as being a monthly meeting to discuss a shared book while drinking wine (or a good beer), enjoying some snacks, and catching up with friends. The modern book club is likely to take the form of Shelfari, with its ability to time-shift meetings, the opportunity to not share that bottle of wine, and have all the snacks to yourself.
An interesting idea. See ZenPundit spread the word to ComingAnarchy and Draconian Observations.
Oh, great. Another excuse to uncork a bottle is gone :-/
