HuffPost Book Club: Our First 2013 Choice Is...
March 13, 2013
Hello. We're back.
Since the completion of American Dervish, we've been inundated with tweets, emails and comments asking when the next book would be announced.
We're sorry for the delay - we've been doing some work behind the scenes to make the HuffPost Book Club even better, and here we are with the first choice of 2013. We knew it had to be a special pick, that leads the way for a year of fantastic book-related discussions.
We asked around. We asked each other. And we all agreed: The Fault in Our Stars by the impossibly charming John Green.
It may be primarily aimed at a teen audience, but it's proven popular with all ages, and rightfully so. And though we're not the first to discuss this book, we're going to be doing so in a whole different way. Whether you've read it before, been meaning to pick it up, or have never heard of this title until now, you're going to want to join us on this journey.
You have two weeks to find yourself a copy of The Fault in Our Stars. We will reconvene back here on March 27th when our Books and Teen editors will share thoughts on why this book is important not just as a piece of literature, but also as a rite of passage for a certain group of readers.
Our discussions will live here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/12/book-club-fault-in-our-stars_n_2862817.html
In the meantime, click here to familiarize yourself with some essential John Green including a cool timeline of his greatest achievements and where to buy the book. Warning: he is VERY prolific.
Will you be reading with us again?
