Sorry to inundate the forum with lots of posts lately, but I’ve created a folder for “housekeeping,” for all those details that aren’t directly related to actual books.

So, we needed a new name for the book club. Initially, I had haphazardly titled it Hofmann Life Book Club, as an extension of my blog on the old forum, so the URL would be somewhat similar to my blog. But now, here on Goodreads (and especially with the big fat widget of the book club on my blog), the whole Hofmann Life thing is overkill and makes me strangely uncomfortable.

How do we feel about calling it “Paged: A Book Club”? I’ve altered the title for the time being. Lemme know if it’s lame. Seriously. Perhaps there are better names out there? It's easy as pie to change the name, so I'm open to suggestions!

Cute Idea. I've thought that if I were ever a book club creater, something like "Not Your Everyday Ordinary Book Club" might be a fun title. Yours is just fine, just my own thoughts.

Ack, Jewels! I had forgotten about that! Lordy, we were such dorks in our youth. Gloriously fabulous dorks.

Not bad, Auntie Cheryl! Of course, I'm a sucker for a good pun. Any other thoughts out there? Should we change to Reader's Ink?

Note the (additional) book club name change, courtesy of Auntie Cheryl.

Also, we need some nifty photo for the widget. Right now, we have the cover image of Lost Summer showing up, but it's sort of redundant with the "currently reading" book cover montage. And we don't like redundancy. Anybody have any nifty images/photos that might work?

Maybe we could Google image an old fashioned feather and ink set that could be inserted there. I like the name!
