Our very first Book Club Pick! Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer will be our first foray into book clubbing.

Dear friends, readers, users,

Welcome to the open forum Tumblr blog where we can share books we’re reading, have read, will read, want to read. Let’s crack our knuckles and adjust our eyeglasses. Please share what you’re reading right now, and I invite you all to read items in tandem, so we might discuss it together.

I’ve just started Ken Kesey’s “Sometimes a Great Notion.”

Thanks for reading.

B, editor.
