Clever Titles

So maybe your club is one of those that doesn't like the structure of a discussion about the book that involves questions and answers. That's okay.

It's your club, it can be what YOU want it to be.

Here's a more relaxed alternative. Once everyone is gathered give everyone an index card or sheet of paper and have them rate the book. Use a 1-10 scale like your Dancin' With The Stars judges, or maybe a 1-5 star rating. Whatever works for you.

THEN -- rename the book. Get your wheels turning and come up with a great new title. Authors hardly ever get to keep the title they come up with. Marketing gets that honor. See if you can do better.

Have fun!
Can't wait to hear what you come up with.
