Which New Weird book would you like to discuss during March?
Our focus for March is "New-Weird" with focus on author Jeff Vandermeer. For our "main" discussion, we could either suss out the New Weird genre by having a look at the entries in Ann VanderMeer's anthology The New Weird, or we could read something by Jeff VanderMeer.

Hello everybody! Since I won't have time for discussions, or reading much fiction, after Jan 5, 2022 for at least a year on, I would really like to make the best of the last bit of time we have together, and thought it would be nice if we just read some nice relaxing classic European short stories, or those of Ryūnosuke Akutagawa which I would love to discuss. Also added a Japanese mystery story author just for fun. The poll is for discussion to start on December 12. Please vote on the poll and come and join us - you'll really make my day, my month and my year! :)

Hi Everyone! We've decided to make a low-key comeback with short(er) stories, and our first author on the list for 1 October, is Gabriel Garcia Marquez. My personal pick is the dense and challenging noir satire, The Autumn of the Patriarch, which deals with Authoritarianism, and is written in a sort of Modernist Magical Realism style and is viewed by many as -the- work that put Magical Realism on the map. Choose it if you dare, and at the same time, you will be able to tick off yet another item on your 1001-Books-You-Must-Read (before you die) list! ;) ...or choose something else if you really had another GGM short you still wanted to do. GGM short write-ins welcome.

It has come to our attention that there are no major works by women on our schedule for quite a stretch, though many of our members had great plans in this regard for 2015.
If interested, make your pick, and we'll slot it in for around June/July 2016.

We have had reports that The Chimes by Anna Smaill, which is set to be discussed in February is hard to get hold of for American members. Other members have requested that we have a discussion of Authority by Jeff Vandermeer as soon as possible. We want to move the Chimes out until later and Authority in sooner. Please vote to let us know how you feel about this. Write-in suggestions are enabled.
Discuss Authority in February and the Chimes in June.
Move The Chimes out until later, but rearrange the schedule to have the Authority discussion later than February.
discuss Authority in February - not interested in The Chimes
