sandbox book club

deletedover 8 years

hi everybody!! so after the poll that went up today, i figured roughly 20 people would be enough to start a book club, yes? (i know a lot of people said no, but we don't need a lot of people to start a book club)

so obviously there's a few questions here, we need to decide how we're doing this, what book we're reading, when we discuss it/meet, etc.

so pitch me your ideas here for books/timing, and vote in the poll for where we host it! <3

where will the book club be hosted?

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Catcher In The Rye - J.D. Salinger
Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn
One Hundred Years of Solitude - Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez
Jane Eyre - Charlotte Brontë
The Bell Jar - Slyvia Plath
The Color Purple - Alice Walker
The Things They Carried - Tim O'Brien
