[Publib] Book Clubs

Wed May 20 16:41:53 EDT 2009

Our mystery book club has been thriving for years. And our West Branch has
a long-standing classics reading group.

And in my experience, if Oprah told people to read The Bhagavad Ghita in
the original Sanskrit, they would do it.

Have you tried a book club of Oprah picks? What about Kentucky authors or
Civil War books?
