In reply to Leaders should also be participants, posted by jane d on February 10, 2002, at 20:04:32
Welcome....I'm not sure I understand what you mean...if a book leaves both leaders cold it should be deferred?
Can you elaborate please...I mean, if a book leaves whatever leader cold, shouldn't that be part of whatever discussion is made? (S)He may have their reasons why, or it just didn't click, but I would think that that would be a part of what it's all about? If that person gave their reasons, someone may respond with something that agreed or disagreed with that opinion and may or may not change it...
Just MHO-

So, while we all should vote on what books to read, if there is a book that leaves both leaders completely cold it should be deferred until another time with another leader. I don't want to force any one to lead on discussion of a book that they would not otherwise participate in.
