Book Clubs at Lunch

I work at a middle school in Bryan County, Georgia, and we have begun having a once a month Book Club meeting. The idea originally started with a former student of mine last year. When he went off to the high school, we nominated upcoming 8th graders who took over the sessions. We all read the books, and Lauren and Daniel lead the discussions while we all eat. I have been surprised and impressed by the high level of discussion that the students involved contribute. We have students from 6-8th grade. We have no formal attendance, if you don't like the book, you can drop out for a month and pick it up again later. I work with our media specialist to supervise, but that is all that we do. I really enjoy my lunch on that day!
