Young at Heart Book Club has arrived!! We hope you’re as excited as we are to talk about some fun, nostalgic reads. Our individual book discussion posts are now live:
- Judy Blume’s Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing
- Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
- Claribel Ortega’s Ghost Squad
We’ll meet up to chat on Zoom on tomorrow evening, Sat. May 22, 2021 7 pm EDT, . (Sign up for the CBR newsletter “Cannon Fodder” to get Zoom details.)
We will also be talking on our Social Media platforms, and of course in our Facebook group, Cannonball Read Book Chat, we’ll have some additional prompts so please join us there as well.
You can also comment below on some of the broader topics:
- Let’s talk expectations: If this was a re-read, did your opinion about the book change? If it was a new read, did your reading experience match what you anticipated?
- Who is the real target audience for The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy? The humor?
- Stress is a constant theme in Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing, how did it affect your reading experience or ability to relate to the characters?
- Is there anything that makes Ghost Squad a distinctly 21st century novel?
I’ll see you soon!
