Information
This group aims to foster a rousing exchange of ideas around the topics we all enjoy by reading through a book over a reasonable time-period (busy teachers, don't be put off!) and responding to wide-open discussion prompts from rotating sponsors.
Katrina Combs is leading our second book discussion. Find out more details here and follow others in a summer read through Plato's Republic.
Our first book discussion was Norms and Nobility by David Hicks, one of the top 100 books on Classical Christian Education.
We'd love to hear your ideas for what to read next. So far, members have suggested Crime and Punishment, The Abolition of Man and St. Augustine. So settle down by the fire, grab your book and your laptop, and tell us what you're thinking. Our conversation won't be the same without you.

I would love to add The Abolition of Man by C. S. Lewis to the books considered to be read by our group. I think it would lend itself to great discussion.Continue

Lovely! I'm so glad to get in touch with everyone despite the holiday and the slower pace of summer. "See you" Monday!

Hello everyone! It's the first week of July and I promised I would be ready to begin reading Plato's Republic together. Should we officially begin next Monday, July 9th, starting with Republic, Book 1?? I am thinking we could take one week to read Book 1. I have a proposed schedule but I thought I would attempt to get everyone's attention first. . . .

Great suggestion! I don't know how I'll squeeze it in, but it is a worthy book, and I'd love to follow the discussion.

Mid- to late June would work best for me as well. Looking forward to this!

I haven't commented yet, but I'm on board. Our last day of school is May 23, so beginning in June is fine with me.
