Hello, Nice to meet you all! Would any of you have any interest in starting a Bubbles Forum book club? I feel like every issue of Bubbles introduces me to so many new books I never know what to read next, but I would love to read along with a group of likeminded people and get some discussion on something going. Thanks!

Great! If people could maybe suggest books that they'd be interested in book clubbing, then we could make a poll and vote on what we would like to read if that works for people? Any suggestions of new stuff people might not have had a chance to check out yet? Maybe that new Dash Shaw...?

Maybe that new Dash Shaw...? I think that's a great place to start. I'm in.

Cool! If that works for everybody else, we can start book club with Dash Shaw's Discipline, available here: www.nyrb.com/products/discipline?variant=37889421541544I want to give people some time to sign up for this and order copies of their book, so maybe we can start reading and discussing in a couple of weeks, then set a schedule for reading/discussing the book! Does that work for people?

Also worth noting that Discipline is currently on sale, so now is a perfect time to pick it up to read with us!!!

Anybody else interested in picking up Discipline for the book club -- NYRC is currently having a sale on all their comics, including Discipline! I highly suggest picking up The Man Without Talent and Return to Romance if either seems interesting -- two recent reads of mine that I got a lot out of -- but all their books seem worth purchasing
