[LM_NET] High School--Boys Book Club

["Ann O'Hara" <ohara1292@GMAIL.COM>]

I work at an all boys high school and am interested in starting an after
school book club for students.   I see a good number of young men reading
the fiction books I purchase and think that a book club might be a good way
to promote reading for pleasure and even help these young men develop some
leadership and communication skills.

Has anyone had success running a book club in a high school environment?  In
a all male environment?  If so, can you give me any advise on how to promote
the club and how to run a successul meeting.  Maybe even some thought on
what not to do would be helpful too!

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
