Let's restart the book club!

I think instead of picking one book and sticking with it we should post what we are currently reading and do book report threads.

The goal is to create recommendations on what to read and hopefully one of the other members will read and add to the thread.

I have a few ideas but nothing firm, please add some more ideas

Biweekly Short Story Club - Pick a short story and read it and post discussion in the threads
Monthly themes?
A standard book club report template?
Don't change anything and just restart?

Let me know what you think!

I think guilty pleasure and easy, plot driven reads have a space for sure. I'll check them out I haven't read a Grisham book in years. I used to pick them up before long train rides to Boston or DC when I had a different job.

On an aside, growing up I used to really love Michael Crichton books but the climate denier stuff at the end of his career is mega cringe.
