We are seven handsome and charming* guys who meet at a different restaurant every month or so, having read a book in common, and discuss whatever we want--generally the assigned book, but usually many other timely topics as well. We rotate the responsibility to suggest titles, but the group has the final say. Our book club rules: 1) Anything goes, fiction or nonfiction; 2) paperbacks are preferred; and 3) staying under 300 pages is desirable (N.B., we violate this one all the time). We rate all books and restaurants on a 5-point scale.* All other adjectives were vetoed.

??? (112 Eatery)
We met at the new restaurant, 112 Eatery, in the Mpls warehouse district. Even on a Tuesday night, it was hot! After we were seated, lots of people more trendy than us waited in line for a table. We had an interesting and spirited discussion about otherwise boring issues like faith and religion. Everyone agreed that the book club members most resembling our simian fore-monkies were Bill and Max. We also agreed to read Phillip Roth's Plot Against America and to meet on January 9.
