Upon reading a recent book that was very good and discussion-worthy, we got the idea that we should every once in a while have a roundtable where we can fully discuss everything about the book from start to finish. We’re going to talk about this on the most current show (7/31/07), but I wanted to also have a post dedicated to it as well.

Basically what we’re wanting to do is tell you guys around two or three weeks beforehand what book we’ll be fully discussing in order to give anyone who wants to read it time to. Then on one week when we’d normally do our show, we’ll fully review the book in a roundtable fashion with a couple more people who have read the book, so it won’t just be Joe and myself discussing it. Additionally, because we’re giving you guys time to read the novel, we’d like it if you all would send us your thoughts on the book or various aspects that we could discuss during the show. We really want there to be a lot of interaction during these shows. Of course, participation is up to you, but we think it’d be great to bring together thoughts and opinions of everyone who is watching the show.

For the first roundtable discussion we’re going to have here at P&B, the novel we have chosen is Ishmael: An Adventure of the Mind and Spirit. The novel is about 272 pages, but it reads really quickly. Since this is the first time we’re doing this, we’ll give it a full month before we discuss it. Look for the show about this book around August 21st.
