Title: Stardust
Author: Neil Gainman
Summery: Young Tristran Thorn will do anything to win the cold heart of beautiful Victoria—even fetch her the star they watch fall from the night sky. But to do so, he must enter the unexplored lands on the other side of the ancient wall that gives their tiny village its name. Beyond that old stone wall, Tristran learns, lies Faerie—where nothing, not even a fallen star, is what he imagined.
Breakdown: The book is 368 pages, and 10 chapters with an Epigraph and an Epilouge.
So here's the skinny:
October 1st - Start date
October 7th - Finish Epigraph through end of Chapter 2
October 14th - Finish Chapters 3 through end of Chapter 5
October 21st - Finish Chapter 6 through end of Chapter 8
October 28th - Finish Chapter 9 through end of Epilogue
Meetings - I'm hoping to either use Saturday or Sunday nights to get up a post on the blog for discussion. You all can then post comments at your own convenience. Still working out what dates for any live discussions. We can work out dates/times later to do a Google + hang out, or just a group chat where we are all together.
