What I like about my book club is the ability to read modern literature. I'm so fixated on my classics that I sometimes lose contact with what is happening in the literature world today, and I don't want to. I want to feel the inspiration that drives literature nowadays, the problems, the challenges and I want to read in the "modern" way - otherwise, I risk of speaking in Victorian English before I know it! This time around, the book was The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, and this proved to be a great challenge for me...
