Welcome to the all new Absolute Write Book Club!
Sparked by a suggestion from the populace (thanks for the great idea!), the Book Club is a place where discussions of specific books can take place under one roof. Since Perks was the first one to say, "Hey, that's sounds like a good idea..." we decided she should be the moderator. Thanks for volunteering, Perks!
We've come up with some guidelines for using this forum:
Enjoy!
PS -- please feel free to post any comments about the Book Club in this thread.
ETA - Please expect spoilers here. To try to talk around key plot points would cripple the discussions.

We've come up with some guidelines for using this forum:
- When starting a new thread, please title it with the book title and author name, as in: The Street Smart Writer, by Jenna Glatzer & Daniel Steven.
- The AW Book Club is reserved for discussion of specific books, therefore we request that people endeavour to keep each thread focused on the book being discussed.
- We realize some of the more popular books will inevitably spawn multiple threads, but so that Perks isn't kept busy "herding cats", discussion of any one book should remain within a single thread as much as is practical.
- Remember, Jenna's one rule applies: respect your fellow writer. That goes for the author(s) of the book being discussed too, even if they aren't a member here.
- The last rule is the only one we'll be sticklers about: No starting a thread about your own book. This is to avoid spam-type drive-by posters looking for free publicity. The idea is that this forum should be for honest discussion of a fiction or non-fiction work, not for promotion.
Enjoy!
