Digital Book Club


A neglected Kindle…

Hermione: Your Kindle looks tatty.

Viola: You introduced me to it. Years ago. You don’t seem to be using yours much lately.

Hermione: Er, no. Busy, you know.

Viola: We should read more.

Hermione: How about we have a book club? Download the same book to Kindles and post comments by an email thread? One with the highest word count in the comments wins.

Viola: With a limit on copying and pasting from the original text.

Hermione: OK. Ten percent quotes max in the posting. How about a Somerset Maugham?

Viola: Good choice. Very classic. Haven’t read him for fifty years.

A reading solution for states of emergency or lockdowns. Digital book club to avoid those vociferous virus-laden get-togethers.
