Too busy for a book group? Print E-mail

Tall stack of book group kit totes on a deskAs wonderful as it is to talk about books with other people, it can become just one more appointment on a too-busy schedule.  Here's an alternative - check out a new WCLS book kit!  Ask your friends, family, and coworkers if they will all read the same book with you and then talk about it as you read together. 

Kits include 10 copies of the same book, a reading guide, and sometimes a DVD or audio supplement.  The six-week loan period gives you plenty of time to distribute, read, discuss, collect and return the books.  Reserve yours today!

An interesting reading list called Local First, compiled by IndieBound (an association of independent booksellers), was recently brought to my attention.  It includes great reads about making and keeping local economies vibrant.  Another list for your consumer soul is a collection of recent titles on living frugally - even while we support our local economy!
