Why can't /lit/ have a Book of the Week type deal like /tv/ does?

I think that would get a lot more discussion going, if there's a mod who's up to it.

Or it could be a bi-weekly or monthly thing.

We did.

Our first book was Infinite Jest.

I'll let you conclude on how well that went.

We do. There's a goodreads group and everything.

This is true. It does a book club thing.

The /tv/ one doesn't even work, unless it's a popular film most of the board just pretends to have watched it. This was incredibly obvious when Yi Yi was FotW

I think it already existed and was about as horrible as you would expect.

Not a bad idea, but don't get the mods involved.

It got planned but the book choice was tome-heavy
