Great post! I felt a lot of the same ways about book clubs so I did join one, it's turned out to be really a great experience so far. We are currently reading a novel by Julian Stone called Strange Birth, I would never had read this book had it not been for the club, and I would have missed out! juliandavidstone.com is his site, the book is fantastic, it covers the 1950's television era and really takes me back!
