poilord Germany3252 Posts November 13 2008 16:48 GMT #42 I've already read 1984, Brave New World and Slaughterhouse Five. So I think I'll go with Catch-22 since I've never heard of Fifth Business before. And props for taking the time and getting this thing on the way Lemonwalrus :D

Lemonwalrus United States5465 Posts November 13 2008 18:59 GMT #44 Poll ended in a tie, asked irc to tiebreak, first response was 1984 by vGl-Cow, so that is what we are reading. Thread here: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=82227

Pholon Netherlands6142 Posts May 07 2009 09:49 GMT #46 BUMP For those still interested in reading/discussing literature I'm trying to get a (weekly) discussion going over here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=92836

Lemonwalrus United States5465 Posts July 11 2010 05:59 GMT #47 Gauging interest in a possible third book. Haven't put too much thought into it yet, just want to see if anyone is interested. Would like to have book chosen within a week or so and have book read entirely and discussion and whatnot pretty much finished by the second week in august. So feel free to say if you are interested or not, what time frame is good for you and the like in this thread. Also, how do you think book should be chosen? I was thinking pm votes where you get +1 vote for each past book club you participated in. So like if you read world war z but not 1984 or vice verse, you get 2 votes, if you read both you get 3, and if you didn't read either you get 1 vote. This way we avoid people who are unlikely to actually stick it out and participate getting a large portion of the vote and simultaneously reward loyal book clubbers. Good idea? DO NOT SUGGEST BOOKS IN THIS THREAD, AT LEAST FOR RIGHT NOW, I WILL MAKE A NEW THREAD FOR THAT WHEN THE TIME COMES. (I don't want the discussion to be derailed into 'list your favorite book and then never come back and read the thread' yet)

Ilikestarcraft Korea (South)17743 Posts July 11 2010 06:51 GMT #48 I would definitely be interested in another one. I really enjoyed world war z. For time frame might not have access to internet for the first week of august which shouldn't that bad because if you plan on having discussions on the second week i'll probably have finished the book and have access by then. The only thing i would like is having the book picked before July 31st. Having no access to internet, with nothing to do but read. I like your idea for chosing the book. I'll probably get +1 point because even though i read wwz i barely participated in discussions.

Skillet-Master United States34 Posts July 11 2010 07:01 GMT #49 This sounds like a nice idea. As much as I hated having to write papers on literary elements and stuff in high school I did enjoy the class discussions since there is so much stuff you miss on your own. I'd be interesting in participating.
