We regularly hold Book Discussion meetings, in which attendees are encouraged to read the same book and discuss it as a group. This blog is intended to allow us to continue our discussions of these "selected" titles online after our in-person discussion has come and gone.
We encourage any/all SBA members to comment on any of the books posted about here. We also welcome comments from other visitors to this book discussion Blog, but we recommend identifying yourself if you're a visitor among us. One thing we do request of people leaving comments -- please give the book you're commenting on a 1-10 score (1=worst 10=best), so that we can include such statistics over on the SBA website! Note: We've had to turn on comment moderating due to a large number of spam posts recently. Therefore your comments may be delayed by a day or two, before they appear here!
