But in related news, can we start compiling a list of Buffistas who are interested in volunteering to pick a book?
Heh. I'll volunteer but you should put me down low on the picking list since I'm getting one of my suggestions so early.
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

The Buffista Book Club: the Harry Potter iteration
This thread is a focused discussion group. Please see the first post below for the current topic and upcoming book discussions. While natter will inevitably happen, we encourage you to treat this like a virtual book club and try to keep your posts in that spirit.
By consensus, this thread is reopened specifically to discuss Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It will be closed again once that discussion has run its course.

Excellent point! I'll use my power for good. And to charge grilled shrimp and margaritas to the book club expense account.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

We actually toyed with making this a requirement, but I'm not sure that part got consensed.

BT, we're making a list of book pickers. Did you want to be on it?

Eh. I think I said something about it being good, but I don't know that it needs be a requirement.
BTW. I love that this has all been so "You pick- oh what a wonderful pick! Say let's do it this way!"
sigh Such a young thread.

As long as that's not a euphemism for something, sure.

Since we're in the space between two books, I'd guess a lot of people who might be interested aren't checking up with this thread. Iffin there's no objection, I'll put a little notice in Press that we're looking for people to step forward.
