Castle in the Clouds

I would love to be part of an active book club, especially one that is comprised of eclectic readers.  Eclectic because that's how I define myself.  When it comes to books, I like it all.  Well, almost all.   fantasy science fiction mystery horror romance really smutty romance classics Mainstream and non-fiction are exceptions, but they're not completely off the list.  I'll read them if I need or want to, but they're certainly not the first things I reach for when I'm itching for a good book.  So, I'm looking for other eclectic readers.  People who are willing to read outside their comfort zones.   There are problems with book clubs, though.  One of the most important things the group would need to do is to actually show up to the meetings and, I don't know, participate.  With the crazy, busy schedules we all seem to have this can be a very real stumbling block.  This is why I'm thinking I'd like to participate or create an online
