A child can go only so far in life without potty training. It is not mere coincidence that six of the last seven presidents were potty trained, not to mention nearly half of the nation's state legislators.

I was thinking about a different type of reading group, one that focuses on genre novels.  A genre could be chosen, suggestions made on books people haven't read before, and so on.

Yes, I'm talking sci-fi, horror, western, romance, etc., and all the sub-genres therein.

Thoughts?  Interest?

So, no deadlines and required discussions?

Well, I think the point with all such groups is to have people to discuss them with.

Oh.  Then I guess I'm unclear on what you're suggesting.

Beefy

Typical book club structure, just focusing on genre novels.  Or those novels that are considered genre novels.  Or sub-genre novels.  Or sub-sub-genre novels.

I sure as hell don't know what he's talking about.  Aren't all books actually genre books?  Yes.
