As a member you must participate in …

My husband is balder now, thanks to my love of classic fiction and my inability to keep quiet about it. In an effort to maintain marital peace (and perhaps to keep a few threads of hair attached to his poor head), I decided to start a book discussion group centered on classic novels. The purpose of the group, then, will be to dive into the worlds created by some of history's most famous authors: Steinbeck, Twain, Austin, Dostoevsky, and, of course, Dickens, just to name a few. If you also enj …

The Dickens Chicks book club is all about ladies reading Classic Literature.

With that in mind, we are starting a supplemental group to our book club: Dickens Chicks at the Movies. We will continue to read the Classics on the last Sunday of each month, but in between those readings, we'll meet again to watch the movies that go along with these …
