Book News: The "Lost" Book Club

Recently, The Powers That Be over at ABC.com have created a “book club” of books that have appeared or been referred to on Lost—ie, in one episode, Sawyer is seen reading a copy of Are You There God? Its Me, Margaret; in another, an orientation film is hidden behind a copy of The Turn of the Screw. Apparently there are more than 40 of them—so far. Each book is accompanied by a short synopsis, plus a short description of the book’s relevance to the show. There’s also a discussion forum for the books. Its basically the book club for Lost junkies. It’s a cute idea. See for yourself.

I saw this and Amy's challenge several days ago and thought it looked interesting.

Oh wow! I'm seriously thinking that I need to get involved in this one. Great marketing idea from them.
