Reading Group Choices has added two features aimed at making group discussions "lively and interesting," as the company puts it.
A new author/reading group discussion contest allows reading groups to register online for a chance to have one of the authors in the 12th edition of Reading Group Choices talk with the group via speaker phone. Each month six reading groups win; Reading Group Choices selects the author and helps set up the meeting. Authors available are listed in Reading Group Choices with an icon.
The new On the Bookcase program provides commentary for reading groups about books, authors, publishing trends and reading group trends. The first On the Bookcase discusses Writers on the Air: Conversations About Books by Donna Seaman (Paul Dry Books, $24.95, 1589880218), interviews of authors that Seaman conducted on her twice-a-month Open Books radio show.
