  1. Did anyone read The Brief History of the Dead by Kevin Brockmeier? It was a good book and quite thought provoking. Pretty fast read too.

  11. I'm the discussion leader?! Ack! What am I supposed to do? Think up questions?

    Posted 3 months ago by Catwoman #

  12. That is what was done with the past book selection discussions, CW. The person whose book is chosen leads the discussion by posting a few questions. Many books already have discussion guides readily available online. You could look for one for A Brief History of the Dead. :)

    In fact, here is one: http://www.randomhouse.com/catalog/display.pperl?isbn=9781400095957&view=rg

  14. Cheri I wish you had. One of the high school students used the book for his essay for his Advance Placement test--it was an amazing essay--to the point this book is being added to the reading list. It really get you to think outside the box. A wonderful book and very thought provoking! Thanks for getting this one on the list CW!
