So, the book club went quite well. I think that we really got into The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, and talked about most of the big ideas of the book. Rebekah said as we were leaving (the coffee shop closed) that she wanted to talk more, because she didn't think we'd gotten to everything. I think that's a good place to be, actually, because that means she thought the discussion was good and wanted it to continue, and didn't feel that we had exhausted the topic. Right now there are five of us; myself, Maggie, Liz, Liz's younger sister Rebekah, and Rebekah's friend Lisa (who, strangely, went to high school with me - small town). I still remember how to lead a discussion, and we only once or so wandered off onto a useless rabbit trail, which is good.

In two weeks we shall be discussing Prince Caspian.

The first meeting of the theoretical book club (so named because it has not yet become an actuality) is today. We're talking about The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. I sort of ended up in charge, because it was my idea (I think) and I really want it. Thankfully, I have experience leading group discussions, so it should go alright. We'll see what happens. I've never really done this before. But I have an idea where I should like the discussion to go, and some questions to start things off, and hopefully it shall go well. I think it will.
