[quote=Anonymous]We take turns choosing the book. We traditionally just names the book, but recently have been coming up with 3 choices for the others to provide input. I appreciate that, because there has been a couple of books that was really not interested in. Mostly I was fine with the selections, too. Sometimes I don’t weigh in on the options. We don’t have a theme or a genre - I think it would be really limiting. We read all kinds of books - fiction, non-fiction, classics, contemporary - I’m sure we’ve read close to 100 books together at this point. For me, the only thing I think about in terms of ‘criteria’ when it’s my turn to pick is whether it is likely to be fun or interesting to talk about. Two of us in my book club really enjoy Sherlock Holmes, but agree that they wouldn’t be good for book club because there’s not much to discuss. Books I never would have considered reading independently have provided great conversation. [/quote]
