Things have been quiet here at the Book Club! I've consulted with a couple of active participants to consider book selection, and we've made some executive decisions. All the books suggested below are available as both e-books and as paper versions.
We have had two books of fiction and propose to have two more. I haven't read either, but plan to do so.
Then for Round 4, we're going big with some classic books on Iberia and on pilgrimage. You might want to put these on your Christmas lists.
Of course, in the spirit of the forum, anyone can always post a thread about a camino book. I am just trying to coordinate some reading for fun, without structuring things too much or too little.
Feel free to comment on the process or the schedule.
Now I'm off to order some books (if I can't find them in my local library).
