Catching Up with the LBC

I don't think I've mentioned the LitBlog Co-Op recently, despite being a member. Time to catch up. As you may recall, the book that was selected (through a vote by the founding members, of which I was not one) was Kate Atkinson's Case Histories. After various events with that book, the other nominees were announced: In the Flesh by Christa Wolf, Embroideries by Marjane Satrapi, Old Friends by Stephen Dixon, and The Pornographer's Poem by Michael Turner. And now this week, the people who didn't like Case Histories express their Minority Opinion.

Upcoming at the site will be, we hope, a visit from Kate Atkinson. In September we'll reveal the next Read This choice, the first one to be voted on by all 21 bloggers. And there's even a chance we may unveil something new and different between now and then, if any of us have the time...
