The #spbkchat list: Book Groups

Not a very long list this week. For the first hour or so, we mostly talked about book groups themselves. Whether we belong to any groups. What we like, or don't like, about them. And those of us in a book group shared our experiences. But then, of course, we did move on to books, those that we'd read for a book group, and some that we think would make for good book group discussions.
So, here's the list:
