the sluggard book club

I meant to get this going, well, a week ago.  But travel and the re-starting of a routine and illness have slowed me up.  Anyway, one of my goals this year is to write more.  And one is to read more.  I tried to do this last year, and am going to try again this year:  the sluggard book club.

I'm going to read a book each month, and post some observations as I go.  A few rules about the book club:

1.  I'm going to read about what I'm interested in.
2.  Choosing a book does mean that I endorse the book, but that does not that I agree with everything in it.  In fact, it's possible that I don't agree with anything in it.  I chose it because it sounds interesting to me (see rule one).
3.  Regardless of whether I agree or disagree, if you agree or disagree with me or the author, please say so, but in a way that furthers the discussion.  No name calling.  No accusations.  No simple "nu-uh" type of responses.  I know some of the books I have in mind contain some issues that I'm trying to make sense of.  I want to be challenged, stretched, and even occasionally become even more confused before finding the answers.  Help me along the way.

If you want to read along, great, if not, that's fine.  I will, with the exception of the first book, post info a couple of weeks out in case you want to acquire and follow along.  Not that I'm Oprah with a huge following or anything like that.  But, it could be fun.
