Book Club Letters

Book Club is a fun way for our class to enjoy reading and discussing books informally. Currently, we are reading The Hobbit, Snow in August and Bless Me, Ultima.

You and your book club will correspond here in letter form about your book. Your two initial letters should be posted here, and addressed to your book club in general (“Dear Book Club”). In your letters (2 pages) you will discuss your reading of the book – offering insights, asking questions. You should keep an eye out for themes, symbolism, and connections to our other readings from the year and include direct quotes with page #.

On meeting days, don't forget to bring a hard copy of your letter to help you participate in your group’s discussion.
