Let's Talk Books!

I know it's the beginning of the year and all, and there's a ton...no wait...A TON of stuff to do, but I'm hankerin' to talk books with somebody...or hopefully a few somebodies! I'd like to host a book discussion group open to faculty and students. No requirements necessary: no tests, no projects, no grading...just fun reading and lively conversation. If you're interested, please complete the form below. I'm hoping to get started with Go Set a Watchman the first week of September with discussion the first week of October. Let me know if you have any questions.
