How about some short fiction:

The Old Man and the Sea
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
Moby Dick

It might be nice to switch things up a little.

Don, it's great that you are initiating this. I am game for whatever book you choose :-)

I am just starting to read Isaac's Storm by Erik Larson. It's about the biggest hurricane in history that happened in Texas and killed over 6000 people. Greatest national disaster in American History.

Maybe it could be the Book and Video Club

... the Blue Planet series would fall into this category.

that's getting lazy

how about a book on sps species and husbandry.

Or may be something about invertebrates

.

Watching a video doesn't necessarily mean being lazy, it's just another medium for understanding/learning...

I like Josh's idea, though maybe something more current.

The idea of the book club was to get people to read, not watch a video.

We can have the AV club also if you like
