In second semester, I'm taking an Austen class at school. I've read all of them before, some several times, and would be interested if I could squeeze it in. After Christmas when my class starts, I'll have even more to add to the conversation.
I'm reading Persuasion starting in a week or so. I would love to talk about that. However I can't promise I can keep up with another book club. When I can join I would love to participate. I wouldn't mind doing an Austen novel per year.

I'm up for it, I think, but which book?
You at Western? - I was supposed to take one at U of T, but it filled up before my course enrollment start time, so I had to take something else.Originally Posted by Night_Lamp
Hey JBI, well, considering Virgil said he's going to start Persuasion in a week, maybe we could start with that?
and then i'm keen to move on to Sense and Sensibility.
Sounds good to me. count me in.
I would however like to point out that it is kinda unfair on the majority of the forum if you keep it exclusive to ten people. I know it is easier in the long run, but if people dont participate, well then they dont. If they throw there opinion in, than let them. They can always read back over discussions any way.

Agreed.
10 people idea, canned. It was just an outline anyway.
I am between books at the moment, and was thinking of reading P&P again anyway. But Persuasion is good, when do we start? Where do we post?
Well, up to all of you, i' just created this thread today ( i think? )
Let's vote on the first book we should read
we could kep the discussions to here like they do in the Lawerance thread and Checkov threads.
And it seems people are already up for Persuasion.

We should pick a date that we start reading it, but.. when it comes to moving on to another book, do we just move on, even if someone hasn't finished?
could give about a three month period for each book then to insure that everyone has gotten to read it and discuss it.

I'm in.
Naked except for a cigarette, you let your mind drift and forget your disbelief. Feel the chill down your back and the flutter of wings through dandelion fields, and forget the pull of gravity in a night without stars.
I lack eloquence and commitment to my arguments. They are half baked, and I will begin passionately, and then abandon them.
