Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Hi folks I got a comment from someone that they thought the book club is full - well, it's not! At least not the veg/AR portion. Let me explain ... the BAVeg Book Club is reading general fiction (8 books) and nonfiction veg/AR books (4 books). The fiction side is being organized by Lisa, and they're organized more like a traditional book club with a core group attending each discussion. I believe their group is full or may have one opening. For the non-fiction side, I've never attended a book club or participated in one until now. I just wanted to read some/more books about veg/AR and I thought a book club would give me an opportunity to do that, while meeting others who would enjoy reading the books and discussing the ideas & information contained within. So reading veg/AR books four times a year was incorporated into the Compassionate Living program (which has a monthly program related to vegetarianism, animal rights, or advocacy). For the veg/AR books, if we want to have a core group that meets everytime, that's fine. Or if people just want to read one book, that's fine too. So, just a FYI to clear-up any confusion. These are the next 2 veg/AR books scheduled for this year. If you'd like to attend, or find out more info, please use the links below. 7/22 - A Pig Who Sang to the Moon http://www.bayareaveg.org/events.htm?EID=1060#1060 8/20 - The Way We Eat: Why Our Food Choices Matter http://www.bayareaveg.org/events.htm?EID=1087#1087 You can find more about the BAVeg Book Club in the forum at http://www.bayareaveg.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=49 Thanks, Tammy Bay Area Vegetarianswww.BayAreaVeg.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Hi, Yes, Tammy is correct. There is officially one space left in the general books section of the BAVeg Book Club. There are currently 7 of us. We're reading our 4th novel: The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, which we'll be discussing at our next meeting on 6/18. Our fifth meeting, with a book yet to be determined, will be held on 7/23. We've been meeting at veg*n restaurants and discussing our books while enjoying delicious vegan food together. You can get more information at: http://www.bayareaveg.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=49 & sid=63a9a9dbe66c950c8565ae86ffdae982 Anyway, we've been having fun at the meetings and you're welcome to join us for a meeting or all meetings as space is available. So, if you love both reading and vegan food and would like to meet and get to know more vegans/vegetarians, feel free to join us. Take care.
