Everyman | 7718 comments Hope everybody has a great Turkey day. This week is to relax with family and catch up on your reading if you need to. Then the final two weeks, finishing the book and then a week of formal discussion of the whole book, but after that the discussion will stay open indefinitely.

But of course, feel free to continue the discussion this week either in this topic or in any of the others.

HA! HA!

I've been dying to say something about the next book, but didn't want to provide any spoilers. I guess I will have to stuff the sock back in my mouth for another week. Or, alternatively, I stuff my mouth with Turkey and pie. Happy Thanksgiving to all in the USA or elsewhere who celebrate it.

Well, when you read so far ahead of the group, you deserve to suffer. [vbg:]

I think that's next week.

That thread should be posted on Wednesday, or perhaps late tomorrow.

Everyman | 7718 comments Week 11 (see reading schedule) will be posted tomorrow night, and will cover through the end of the book. At that point, everything is open for discussion, though we shouldn't stint the final chapters for the sake of getting to the overall discussion. Week 12 will be the wrap-up week, if there's anything left to be said after the week 11 discussion. But once week 11 is posted tomorrow evening (computer issues permitting), the whole book is open for discussion.

I know Zeke's been champing at the bit for this, since he was ready to post his thoughts on the book as a whole since around week five, and tomorrow he'll finally be free to say anything with no spoiler concerns at all. I'm anxious to hear finally what you've been so eager to say, Zeke!
