Tried to get my book club to read 'Moby Dick' with a fun twist
I suggested we each read a different chapter and present it like a potluck dinner (you know, bring your own piece of the whale). We have 8 people, so I figured it would take 2 months. It went off the rails when Dave from accounting brought a 45 minute PowerPoint on cetacean biology and Susan just recited her chapter's stage directions as a spoken word poem. The debate about whether we actually finished the book lasted longer than the meeting. Has anyone else's club tried a weird format that completely backfired?

Stage directions as spoken word? That's a new level of book club chaos.

Right, @andrew_kelly? It's a whole new kind of bad.
