Product Description

This is the first book group handbook published since the explosion in book clubs that followed Oprah's Book Club, The Today Show, and USA Today clubs. This light yet compre-hen-sive and accessible volume has it all: -How to's for starting a group and keeping it going, and troubleshooting for all kinds of book groups -Behind-the-scenes anecdotes and 'dirt' from book group members; how to tell a book by its cover -Book group members select the best and worst in book group reading -How to's for eliciting the best conversation -Annotated thematic lists of recommended books -Survey results from hundreds of book groups around the country. Reading groups are here to stay-from mother/daughter clubs to swingin' singles clubs-even whole cities are participating in the fun. This is the book that will make everyone's reading group experience a rousing and rewarding success.

5.0étoiles sur 5 What a great book!, Jui 13 2004
Par Val Krause (Portland, OR) - Voir tous mes commentaires
What a great book! Most how-to books can be dull or hokey, but the advice in this book is interesting, creative, fun and often hilariously funny. The authors take an important topic and make it very accessible. I was pretty nervous about starting a book group before I encountered "Good Books Lately," but now I'm encouraged and excited! After just starting this book, I felt like Ellen Moore and Kira Stevens were good friends of mine! This book's a great reference that I'll use and recommend often.

Par Suzanne Gibbs (San Francisco, CA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
I absolutely loved this book on book groups. A friend of mine recommended it because I was complaining that our book group had gotten a little dull after 7 years. Now, we have reinvigorated our group with the help of this book. Every book group needs to read this book. Ellen Moore and Kira Stevens are absolutely brilliant and incredibly funny.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Good Books Lately: The One-Stop Resource for Book Groups, Avril 27 2004
Par R. M. Montera "Hungry Reader" (Denver, CO United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I've never read another book like "Good Books Lately: The One-Stop Resource for Book Groups and Other Greedy Readers." It's clever and smart without being condescending. Completely accessible! The book is a blend of history, anecdote and How-To. Whether you're in a book club, or just an avid reader on your own, this book is helpful. It gives great tips on being a more active reader and participant in discussion of books.
I had the good fortune of attending a reading of this book by the authors, Kira Stevens and Ellen Moore, and they are even more charming and clever in person! I was in tears with laughter listening to their encounter with Oprah - very funny stuff! Don't worry, the Oprah story is in the book, so you can get a good laugh too!
