i don't know if it's what you're looking for, but you should read A Song of Fire and Ice by George R. R. R. Martin.

i don't generally encourage people to commit suicide but if you haven't finished a novel since you graduated high school you really probably should just end it now

There's an optimist club in my town. There's a sign that says they adopted a road or whatever.

If it's women, it's a drinking club

If it's mixed, it's pretentious

If it's men, there's no such thing as an all-male book club

In my experience mixed book clubs turn into meat markets if you've got a group of only 21-35 year olds.

Yeah lemme just go decode hieroglyphics printed on bark to make a movie appear faintly in my head instead of just picking up the remote, hitting on, and being blown away by a torrent of brilliant color images in staggering hd. Sounds like some real smart poo poo.

Yeah, books are fine, but let's not kid ourselves. Anime is better.

Every person is their avatar IRL so you're clearly a woman.

That's why you read that book.

i only know book clubs from satirizations in movies and tv, so this is a list of stuff we'll need to do:


*don't read book
*guzzle wine
*come up with stuff to say that sounds smart initially
*gossip cattily in kitchen
*affairs?

Got any extra firstborns?
my neighbor's friend invited me to a book club but I found out quickly it was basically just people going to a bar and getting drunk after telling each other that mostly no one had read the book

obvs i stopped going so i could stay at home and gaze at my ponies and read kafka by myself
