Literary Book Club
Did you know that MobileRead has a Literary Book Club? We are a small but active Club, now some five and a half years old, but because of the way life keeps on interfering with reading time, our numbers have been reducing in recent months. We would very much like to see some new members join us, and of course would be delighted to see former members who are able to join in our activities again.
You can find us under Reading Recommendations/Book Clubs. For January 2017 we are reading "Nora Webster" by Colm Tóibín. Do please feel free to join in the discussion. Last edited by Bookpossum; 01-19-2017 at 09:04 PM. |

Thanks, Bookpossum. I'm on the library waiting list for Nora Webster and hope that it comes available soon. We had some lively discussions in the past, and I look forward to taking part in the club once more.

February is one of our Rotating Nominations months in the Literary Book Club. This month it is fantasyfan's turn, and he has produced an intriguing list of books of literary criticism. Some of the famous writers included are E M Forster, G K Chesterton and C S Lewis. For Tolkien fans, there is a book called The Road to Middle Earth.
You can find the voting thread, with details of the books, here. |

March is Non-Fiction month in the Literary Book Club. Nominations are currently being made, and then there will be four days for people to vote for the ones they are most interested in reading.
You can find the link here. |
