I seem to remember that years ago, and a few website updates ago, there was an actual book club here on Q's forums. We took turns choosing a book to read, and would come back to discuss as one would in any other book club.
Am I imagining this or was there such a thing?
I think @sunala might remember.

@GingerPeach- I'm not sure but it's possible. Over the years the readers of QVC have tried to get a book club together, to no avail until we all started begging for one. This board is so special, but it took forever for the Q to work it out so we could have a place to discuss our books.
I do remember discussing books online but it's hard to say where. There were some private book clubs arranged where we took turns picking a book. I remember having to read The Reader by Bernhard Schlink. I thought I'd hate it but it turned out to be one of my very favorite books.
Maybe somebody else will remember?

Thank you, @sunala
I am now remembering (but not sure in which forum it was - Among Friends, maybe?) - that it was difficult choosing a book all those interested would want to read. I am also now remembering one of my choices was Sunburned Country by Bill Bryson. It was the length of the book that put off many, I think.
In any event, thanks for the memory jog.

I vaguely remember this too, and I believe the thread took an ugly turn. That was the end of it, as I recall.
