First rule of Book Club: you do not talk about Book Club..
OK, so I'm going to go ahead and violate the first rule for a minute and let you know about a cool thing we've got going on the boards. A year and a half ago, a few others and myself started reading books and discussing them online. While we read a bunch of cool books, we never could quite find the format for discussion. At our recent Gomer Gathering in Nashville, someone came up with the brilliant idea of doing a book club on the boards. I don't know why I hadn't thought of this before, but it just made perfect sense to use the Third Day Message Boards as a place to discuss our Book of the Month.
Now in its "beta" version, the Book of the Month Club has become simply "Book Club" (yes after that freaky Chuck Palahniuk book/ Brad Pitt movie). We are currently (check that - always) recruiting new members, and right now you have the chance to help decide what the June book will be. It looks like it will be "Praise Habit", by some guy named David Crowder, but there's still time to vote if you have other plans.
Reading books is cool! (Yeah, that still sounds as dumb as it did in elementary school. Just thought I'd try...)
In Philly, a local talk show host holds a book club occasionally. He uses the same quote..."what happens in Book Club - stays in Book Club"
Great idea

That's a great and brilliant idea! I wish I would have thought about it.

I think I just ordered that book. If I get it before June is over, I will try to participate. It may even be here, but I have to get down to the P.O. to check my box.

They should totally make a book about peanut butter. Perhaps a autobiography... because who doesn't want to know a good 1st person story about peanut butter?
