The Meaning of the Master and Margareader...

Suddenly realised that if anyone stumbles across our page, they may not realise what it is about. So it I shall tell you...

We the founders (Anne, Jenny, Kate and myself) all work in publishing. We read books all the time. Most of the time we only read books that we publish. Which can be a bit tiresome.

So we decided we should start a book club, which will meet on the first Tuesday of every month. It will also be a drinking society, of sorts. Because we'll be drinking while talking about books... or talking about books while drinking - whichever way you'll have it. Anyway, for this club there are three important rules.

1. It has to be a book none of us have ever read before
2. It cannot be published by the publlishing house where we all work
3. Whoever chooses the book also chooses the bar, which will be the location for the bookclub meeting that month. The bar ought to have some relevance to the book. But if it doesn't, then it must simply serve booze.

Any other ideas for rules are welcome... But that's all really. (Oh yeah, and it's called the Master and Margareader, because Jenny is a very witty girl.)
