What format should we use for this discussion?
I've just received my copy of "The Things They Carried" and I'm noticing that there are about 22 chapters, some of which are rather short. This book might not lend itself to a chapter by chapter discussion. Typically, we have one thread per chapter, but with 22 total chapters this might spread the discussion too thin.
I'm open to suggestions and discussion. How would you guys like to see this discussion formatted?
And please feel free to start posting on this book the moment you have something to say. Don't wait for someone else to get the ball rolling or we'll all end up waiting a long time. Just start typing and others will join. It is the first few posts that are always the hardest, but then the conversation usually flows freely.
If one of you would like to be the discussion leader just let me know. There are no real requirements other than to do your best to stay involved in the book discussion.
