Loved the reaction from the one-male member of our group Fiction&Friends when I forwarded an article about the finalists:
"Am laughing out loud at the fact that the only all-male book club consists of a bunch of convicts. So that's how you get men to read. Take them out of the general population and lock them up!"
Why is it that women love to meet and talk books but men not?
Postscript:
Read about Nick Hornby's prison visit.

Because women love to meet and talk, period (no pun intended.) :)
PS. What do the latest grammar bibles say about placement of smileys ? :)
men love to meet to talk about women who love to meet and talk about books.
and women love to meet to talk about men who meet to talk about women who talk about books perhaps?
reads from the latest style guide: "smileys punctuate forum talk and e-mail talk and chats at any point where the writer finds his own facial features break into a grin ..."
(;-D)
yap - i've been to this prison before - not as inmatelah! but to visit and interview someone..but am sure he's not one of the reading lot. he'd rather be talking to himslef these days.
btw...u meet my husband and u wont b talking abt anything else but books!
