apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I think we should definitely keep the club going! The tough part about starting it when it did was that it ran right over the holidays, which is a crazy time for everyone. I think it will be even more successful when it is not overlapped by a big holiday.

I liked the book club a lot, although I definitely lost momentum when I finished the book weeks before the club did... it was hard to post thoughtfully when I couldn't remember what was in each chapter. Maybe we should make the time period the same length as the average library loan, since my copy ended up 21 days overdue! ;)

I liked the idea of the book club, but would like a shorter schedule. Or as an alternative, AT Green could post when they start reading a book, giving us notice to either read it too or refresh our memories, then when AT posts a review we could all join in with our own reviews? It'd be less formal than a bookclub, not sure if that'd suit people.

PS - I'm logged in, but it still won't let me take the survey?

I think the book club is a great idea, even if only for good environmental book suggestions. I read Animal, Vegetable, Miracle after seeing it here, and really enjoyed it. definitely a shorter reading schedule!

(It won't let me answer the survey either, but count my vote as yes!)

Anyone have a suggestion for the next book?

Ditto on the survey issue.

I posted affirmative to continuing the club on the survey just now.

I agree about the shorter schedule though. I got the book from the library way after others and still finished it at least a few weeks earlier.

re: survey issue

try refreshing the page after logging in, that works for me

Pollan's "In Defense of Food"? This looks good too: "The Ecology of Commerce" by Paul Hawken.
