Book Club Reminder Post



Book club, book club, book club! Are you excited yet? Two days, my friends, until the first meeting of our relaunched Persephone Book Club. We’ll be discussing Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games. An open thread specifically for book discussion will be posted this Saturday, March 17th and remain open throughout the weekend.

We want to hear what you thought of the novel, any lingering questions you have, and whether or not you think Jennifer Lawrence is going to do the Girl on Fire justice. If you’re not sure what you want to say, I posted some discussion questions last weekend to help get conversation started.

The first movie in the (expected and all but assured) trilogy comes out on the 24th. The busy bees at the movie studio have been releasing clips like they’re going out of style. If you haven’t finished the book yet, you might want to skip hitting play on these videos:

    I just read the first one.  Do I need to be done all three to participate in the book club?

    I enjoyed the books a lot, but my excitement for the film is shockingly out of proportion to that. I dissolve into giggles with just a thirty-second clip.

    That said, I am also shockingly excited to get my lit-crit on with fellow Persephoneers this weekend. :)
