Book Lovers Get Together - 28th September
Hi there! Just kicking off a get together for Book lovers... we can catch up over coffee and talk about all things literary (and more!). Tentatively scheduling this for 28th Sept afternoon. Suggestions for venue welcome and we can decide based on response to the thread.

Sounds like an absolutely wonderful idea. I'd recommend the The Book Cafe: http://www.thebookcafe.com.sg/
Maybe even do a book swap? Although I'm sure no one will take my books, given how I'm into history, politics and other heavy-reading stuff.

Thanks for the venue suggestion Slinger! Happy to take your books-will pass you some great literature from the Twilight series in exchangeSGslinger wrote:Sounds like an absolutely wonderful idea. I'd recommend the The Book Cafe: http://www.thebookcafe.com.sg/

On a serious note, book swap sounds good for subsequent meet ups. Also, I was thinking of making this a regular book club thing where we pick a book for the upcoming meet up and discuss it.
I'm up for something like this, although I wouldn't want any of Slinger's books...too heavy. Both figurative and literal. The last one I saw was big enough to be a murder weapon or a pillow. My Harry Potter books are like that too though...

We can certainly include it in the "Book review" section (so you get to read it first and share with us... yayyy!!!)SGslinger wrote:I'm just about to start Frank Dikotter's "The Tragedy of Liberation: A History of the Chinese Revolution, 1945-1957". Happy to have that as the first book of the book club...
... Or not.
