Newsletter
What’s This?
Glad you asked. This is where you sign up for the book club. Every month I will send out an email with that month’s reading selection. I might occasionally email you something else, but it will be book-related.
If you would like a couple of examples, here are two recent newsletters from the archives. Some are shorter than these, some are longer, all are book-related and awesome.

Hi Josh,
Just a quick note that we can’t see the signup form in IE 7.
Please feel free to delete this note once read!
Keep up the great work!
Thanks Ted. I’ll see if I can figure out what’s going on,
Josh,
Is there a forum for the book club?
John, there isn’t. Currently what will happen is that I’ll write a blog post that I’ll send you a link to. It will generally be a post that is not published publicly on the blog, so only those on the newsletter will have access to the discussion.
I’m hoping that there will be enough members one day to start a forum. But I’ve moderated a few forums and the hassle of spam and the amount of time it takes isn’t going to be worth it for a while yet, unless I can find a team of moderators. Hint!
Hi Josh:
I don’t think I’ve signed up, but would love to. I can’t on the website, however. The boxes are not large enough to complete the entry.
are these reads available as e readers?ty
Some are.
I just signed up for the Book Club, can I get the title of this month’s book? I’d love to participate, even if I am a little behind.
Hi Milena, I”ll send you an email tomorrow, absolutely.
Hi Josh,
I’ve got an ARC of your book and am enjoying it. I am a librarian and always like reading about my fellow librarian’s adventures in sharing a love of books.
Fantastic, thanks for letting me know, Page.
Hey Josh,
I am a memoir lover. I work as a junior high school teacher and I’m always looking for inspiring stories to share with my students. I also have a 4 year-old daughter who is very much into books so I am creating a collection of my favourite books, hoping she will read them and enjoy them one day as much as I do. Thus, I can’t wait to read your story! I might have to wait for a little while and have the book shiped from the States since I live in Mexico. But I am defenitely looking forward to having it in my hands and memoir collection!
All the best,
Veronica.
Hi. Please tell me the site from which i will get a free philosophy books. I really a philosophy book. “The elements of moral Philosophy” by James Rachels. can you help me?
Hi Josh, I just read your blog on your reading experiement and it was very interesting. My friend and I have been playing book bingo to make us read different things. It has been really good but we are still comfort reading in between as sometimes you just want a read something you know you will enjoy!
the bingo sheet looks like this http://www.retreatbyrandomhouse.ca/2013/01/reading-bingo/
The hardest one I have had so far is the book recommended by your barrista. I got recommended to read was “I was Dr Mengels Assistant” which is about Auschwitz and something that I would never choose to read as I like to pretend the world is a happy place. I did read it though and it was interesting, but hasn’t started me on a quest to read more holocaust books.
Thanks for your blog, I’m definitely going to sign up to the book club and read your book
Hello, Josh!
I enjoyed your book very much, and I thought I had joined your book club. Could I have missed your June email? I am looking forward to it.
I know you have been told how inspirational your story is. It is not just your story – it is your ability to share it in a straightforward, honest, literary style that gives it the power to inspire. You can also be very funny, so there is that.
Anyway, I will be looking for your book club email.
Thank you!
Kim

Hi Kim, you didn’t miss the email, I just spaced on it like a loser. First week in July will be the next one. And thank you!
Great! I will be watching for it!
