TIL our book club's choice between 'Klara and the Sun' and 'Project Hail Mary' split the group
We voted last month and picked 'Klara', but half the group found it slow and the other half loved its quiet questions. The debate got so heated our host in Austin had to cut it off after 90 minutes. Has your club ever had a vote that divided people this much?

Oh man, that sounds exactly like our fight over whether to read a literary fiction pick or a fast paced thriller. The quiet book people just could not understand why others wanted a simple page turner. It got awkward for weeks. Choosing books by vote is a recipe for this kind of split. Maybe next time you need a tie breaker book that's in the middle.

But what if a middle ground book just makes both sides bored?
