I just came across a genius last-minute Father’s Day Gift. My friend Stephen runs The Rumpus, an online culture and lit magazine with a genius book club concept. Here’s how it works:
“Every month you get a book in the mail that hasn’t been released yet. You’re invited to a moderated online discussion with the author at the end of the month… You can also write a review of the book and we’ll run the best written review(s) on the website.
It’s neat because we’re going to have a discussion about new books, rather than waiting to be told what books are approved for cultural consumption.”
Such a cool concept, and you can subscribe by the month or the year. Yes to books.
