Book Talk: an online book discussion group

This just in from Andover's Memorial Hall Library:

Do you like to read? Do you like to discuss books? Are you looking for a book group that fits into your schedule? If you or your patrons are interesting in book groups, try Book Talk, MHL's new online book discussion group!

Book Talk is an online community of readers who discuss one selected book each month. We welcome readers who are members of book groups, who can’t attend a face-to-face book group, or anyone who enjoys reading and talking about books! This message board allows you to share ideas, ask questions, and learn about more great books!

You can access Book Talk at the following URL: www.mhl.org/booktalk

Some tips for getting started:
  • Visit General Information for an overview of Book Talk.

  • Read the Forum Rules.

  • To join, click Register, and select a username and password.

  • View the 2007 Reading List

  • Visit Introductions to learn about Book Talk's members and to share some information about yourself.

  • Start talking about books under Other Books or join in on the monthly book discussion.

  • Recommend books for future Book Talk discussions.

Our next discussion, Year of Wonders by Geraldine Brooks, begins on Tuesday, September 25.

Happy reading!
