Good news, Bookworms: we've got a real room! Room 215 in the University Center (UCU) to be precise. For anyone new, the UCU is the the skinny building between Monpetit and Morriset.
We'll hope to see a bunch of you there on Sunday for some Game of Thrones fun.
Stay Connected!

Next Meeting: September 18th
Votes are in and our next meeting will be on Sunday September 18th at 11:30am. That gives us some time to see about a room, so we'll let you know the week before the meeting where it will be held.

Oops!
I made a little blunder in the poll, thank you Lindsay for pointing it out! Both Sunday meetings would take place at 11:30 AM, not pm as one says, and both Wednesday meetings would be at 5:30 pm. Sorry for the confusion!

September's Meeting
Hello Bookworms,
Another semester is almost upon us, and with it, another meeting (at which we'll be discussing George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones). Vote for the time (or times, you can select multiple answers) that would work best for you on our blog poll by Sunday the 4th at 1:00, after which point we'll send out the results.
Because it's the beginning of a new year, we're going through the club-renewal process and certain privileges are currently denied us, namely room booking. This means that if we hold our meeting on either of the earlier dates we definitely won't be able to book a room, and if we hold it on one of the later dates there's still a pretty good chance we won't be able to book a room.
I hope this won't deter anyone from attending, as there are many common areas around campus that can serve us well for this meeting. We'll scope them out over the next few days and let you know on Sunday where the meeting will be held. If anyone has any locations in mind, we welcome your suggestions!

Game of Thrones
Votes are in and we'll be discussing George R. R. Martin's Game of Thrones at our next meeting, which will be held some time in September; we'll send out a poll to pick the date in the last week of August.
For anyone who's not aware, this is the first book of a series that is being adapted for television by HBO: the first season just concluded, and--if you don't mind rampant nudity and violence--it's a darn good time.
Enjoy the rest of your summer and we'll hope to see some of you again in September!

Summer Hiatus, Long Book, and Recommendations
We both have busy summers ahead of us, and most people seem to be busy or out of town for most of the summer, so we've decided to put the club on hiatus until September.
However, we thought it might be fun to read a long book over the summer to discuss at our first meeting in the fall, so if you have a suggestion for a long book email it to us by Friday.
Also, if you read any books you think others might enjoy send us an email with the title and a brief paragraph describing what makes the book so good and we'll post it on the blog for the benefit of all the Bookworms!
