We will be reading recognized or noteworthy novels and short story collections released within the past three years, including award winners and indie sleepers. Discussions will focus on contemporary trends, where books fit inside larger traditions, and each book's themes and ideas.

The "That New Thing" Book Club meets at Midway Pub on the second Wednesday of each month at 7:30 PM.

Book Club Liaison: Jeremiah Wood

Unfortunately, this book club is full and not accepting new members.
