February Book

Hey Folks. We met in January to discuss EL Doctorow's The Book of Daniel. Those who read the book agreed that it was a fine piece of writing -- the author's use of perspective to signal the varying shades of Daniel's chaacter and mood was masterful. Seriously, though, we liked it.

So we also decided there on a new book for February: AM Homes' Music for Torching. I've ordered copies from the bookstore, but they are currently on backorder. So if you can find one at the lbrary, go for it -- or you can look for a cheap copy online (here's the amazon link $1.52: http://www.amazon.com/Music-Torching-M-Homes/dp/068817762X/sr=8-1/qid=1170441905/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-7153584-5467341?ie=UTF8&s=books )

Our next meeting is scheduled for Friday, Feb 23 in the Honors semnar room (were we always meet).
All right. We're also considering whether or not we should get a new name. Something with a little more flair. Something like, "The Book Panthers". Rrrrowww! So brng your ideas (or nominate mine -- Yeah you right!)

All right.
Peace out!

  • An official name is all well and good, but I want to know when we're going to get matching jumpsuits.
