get book: https://amzn.to/2MSPj1W

I am starting a book club on the site. The way it works, is that every month we agree on a certain book to read, and for those that are interested in reading can join the club.

During that month we will read the book, start a string on that book, discuss the book while we are reading it, and debate about the book if need be. It will begin on August 1, 2005.

I am open to reading anything on urban culture, it can be a gang book, a hip hop book, autobiographies, mafia books, etc.

So for those who want to join the book club, i want to hear from people and want to hear what book that you have not read but want to read. If there is a consensus on the a book between now and Aug 1, then we will start with that book. If not, I will pick the first book.

,and I got an idea to guarantee avaliability.
-Book should be present at a Library.f.ex. ours got actual ones for a special price.
-but I would have to read it on german most likely.
-what and how abotu classics ,like Moby Dick or something but newer.(have ulysses here)
-good idea all that ,I will see.
I am behind it ,but been far from buying any in a bookstore.K.Rowlingf fans you know!?.All the Harry Potters,I go wild.

I am thinking of starting this book club with one of the following book:

,

So for those that want to start the book club on Aug 1, 2005, please go out and get this book.

The book is being held for me at the library thanks to inter-library loan.

cool, the book has 11 chapters. We will try to read it at this pace.

Week one = Chapters 1, 2, 3
Week two = Chapters 4, 5, 6
Week three = Chapters 7, 8, 9
Week four = Chapter 10, 11

You can read faster if you want, but at the end of each week, this is a good pace to keep to finish the book.

if anyone need to buy a used book, you can go to https://amzn.to/2MSPj1W and that site will give you a list of book stores all over the world selling that book used.
