When you read the newsletter next week, imagine me slathered in a high SPF lotion, sitting by the water. If it’s a beach week, it’s a book week, and I’ve got a too-big stack ready to go. That got me thinking that it’s high time for us to start a book club here. I want your suggestions for the first pick: a book we can read together, discuss, and do a conversation with the author or other person with thoughts about the book at the end. If you’ll share your ideas, I’ll pick a book for us to read over the weekend, and we can all get started! Should it be serious? Light-hearted? An old classic we re-read together? Leave a comment This is my serious stack, including a mock up of my book (it’s only the book jacket) that I adore. I can’t wait for your suggestions—and a little sun. We’re in this together, Joyce Upgrade to paid Share You're currently a free subscriber to Civil Discourse with Joyce Vance . For the full experience, upgrade your subscription.
