Kevin’s comments from the Practical Classics: The Clubhouse group.

Which will come first Sean?

All true, my dear. All true.

Sure sure (I'm a physical books person too) but as a busy person (you too I imagine) with a giant backlog of things to read, I don't buy anything I don't hear about from a trusted source. Lucking into books has too great a risk for too little reward and my time is too short.

You're probably more open hearted about such things than I am :)

Scratching head. Location? Shelves? Timing? I'm sorry I don't understand.

How'd you find it? Just wonderin'.

Yes, the next of many adaptations. Have you seen any of the ones of the past?

Could you tell us what Nightwood is? I have (probably stupidly) missed that one.

Let's say you only have time for one reread at this moment. What book will it be? And why?

Welcome Sean!

Yes, of course. We'll fistbump then :)

Mairi,

It's likely I'll give you a big huge for being there.

Mairi,

Hmm. I'm sure I'll see you soon and it'll come right back to me.

The launch party at Booksmith for Practical Classics is Thursday Feb. 21st. Will I see you there?

Ok, who are you people? I know three of 4 of you but not Mairi? Mairi? Have we met?

This is Practical Classics: The Clubhouse, a place on Goodreads to discuss the rereading of old favorites from high school or simply earlier in life.

Welcome! Introduce yourself. We're happy to have you here!
