Generation Kill re-read book club

[momecat]

I've been meaning to re-read Generation Kill and One Bullet Away. After talking to some friends over on Maintain Dispersion (the GK discord server) who wanted to join in on reading GK, I've decided to set up a weekly book club. The idea is to read a few chapters throughout the week, and then have a discussion on the following Sunday.

I'll be making a post every Sunday with my thoughts here. So if you want to join in the discussion you can just leave a comment on the post, or pop into the discord server!

Planned timeline for the Generation Kill book re-read club:
10 May: Prologue – Chapter 3 (Pages 1-54)
17 May: Chapter 4 – 6 (Pages 55-99)
24 May: Chapter 7 – 10 (Pages 100-154)
31 May: Chapter 11 – 14 (Pages 155-214)
7 May: Chapter 15 – 20 (Pages 215-276)
14 June: Chapter 21 – 25 (Pages 277-335)
21 June: Chapter 26 – 31 (Pages 336-397)
28 June: Chapter 32 – End (Pages 398-463)


Note: I highly recommend reading the physical copy! But if you don't have access to the book feel free to contact me and I can hook you up with links to PDF/audio book.

Excellent opportunity to finish it :D

yeah I set it up just as we went into lockdown (ages ago) but had only invited some friends (since I found HA shortly after and was chilling there!). I finally signal boosted it on tumblr a little over a week ago. it's a chill place :) you should come join~~

Oh wow. I got into Generation Kill... About 3 weeks ago? Mainlined the series, then read One Bullet Away and I'm now reading the book! Talk about good timing. :D
I'm off to find the actual book discussion posts.
