MACLIC Book Club is born!

So we just met and it was great. 8 keen readers, keen to share, keen to discover, keen to read. We decided:
  • Our name is MACLIC Book Club
  • Our logo will be an indefinite triangle with the words "Reading never stops"
  • We will meet on Thursdays lunchtime, in the library
  • We will read one same book and share our comments
  • We will also read our own and talk about it to the group
  • We will choose and set up displays for the library
  • We will feed the blog, here, this one!
  • We are interested in book-related competitions
  • We will choose new books and meet authors
  • We will have a maclic book club tea at the end of each term
  • We will organise a book fair or book swap

The hardest is really to choose ONE book to all read and share. Lets bring ideas next week or post a suggestion!
