Eerie BooksHorror Book Club - Horror Reading GroupWylie Texas Book Club - Wylie Texas Reading GroupUpdated January 7, 2010 Forrest Jackson pointed out that I haven't updated this page in forever. In fact, he shamed me in front of the entire book club, so I have now updated this page. Next month we're reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Updated November 3, 2009 The book club meets this Thursday night at 6:30pm to discuss Some of Your Blood by Theodore Sturgeon. As always, pizza, beer, and wine will be served. We will also have copies of our next month's book selection (My Work Is Not Yet Done by Thomas Ligotti) available for sale. (I have a limited number of autographed copies available.) Updated May 18, 2009 We had almost 15 people at our most recent book club meeting! That's a record turnout, but we're happy to hose more. Be sure to attend our next horror book club meeting on Thursday, June 4, 2009, and we'll be discussing the novel Dead Until Dark, which was the basis for the popular True Blood series on HBO. Scroll down the page to take a look at some of our upcoming (and past) book discussions. Updated February 17, 2009 So far we've had 3 very successful meetings of the Wylie Horror Book Club. I particularly enjoyed the book House of Leaves, and I think most of the people who visited the store also enjoyed it. I'd like to thank Forrest from Rosedale Rare Books for attending and sharing his thoughts on the book. Scroll down for a schedule of upcoming books we're discussing. Updated November 9, 2008 The first meeting of the Wylie Horror Book Club was a resounding success, with 7 new members in attendance. We now have 7 books scheduled to discuss on the following dates. Anyone is welcome to join. Just show up on the first Thursday of each month, and check the schedule below to see what book we're discussing. (Note that in January, the Wylie Horror Book Club meets on January 8, 2008, since the first Thursday is New Years Day.) Upcoming Book Discussions
Previous Wylie Book Club SelectionsIf you want to catch up on the books we've read and discussed before, they're listed below:
We're in the process of putting together a horror book club (horror book reading group) that will meet the first Thursday each month from like 6:30pm to 8:30pm or 9pm. We will be meeting here at the store on Ballard Street in Wylie, Texas. We'll read one book each month, and at our first meeting, we'll choose the 12 books we're going to read for the year. If you're interested in being part of the Wylie Horror Book Club, please contact us at the store. The phone number is 972-442-9393, or you can email randy ray at gmail dot com. Our first meeting will be on Thursday night, November 6, 2008, at 6:30pm at Eerie Books at 205 N. Ballard St., Wylie, TX. There we'll select the horror books that our reading group will read. Also, since we're hosting, we'll serve beer, wine, soft drinks, and snacks at each monthly meeting. If there's enough interest, we could launch a 2nd book club which meets on a different night, since a group that gets larger than a dozen members might get unwieldy. I hope to hear from someone soon about the book club! Also, this page is relevant to people looking for:
All of those towns are a short drive from Wylie, so people from Murphy, Sachse, Garland, and Farmersville who want to be involved in a horror book club and horror reading group are invited. So if you want to read and discuss Twilight books by Stephanie Meyer, or anything else, please join us. |
