Book Club and Reuse

March 17, 2008 – 2:10 pm

I miss the technical book discussion group at my previous employer. I haven’t found a similar technical book group near me out in the wild, but I have joined a fiction group at one of the libraries near me. I’m facilitating the discussion this month.

Rather than try to come up with all the discussion questions on my own, I found a couple of question sets already online from other book clubs! Kudos to them for recording their work, and making others’ work easier. Since the book this month is Small Island by Andrea Levy, about a couple of Jamaican immigrants and their English landlords during and after WWII, I’m planning to add to the discussion by bringing in ginger beer (non-alcoholic, for those who don’t know) and other Jamaican treats (hand food, not tasty-but-library-carpet-threatening curry or collards).
