Back in my old book club in Portland, we'd always get stuck arguing about symbolism for hours
The problem was we'd spend a whole meeting on one chapter of something like 'The Goldfinch' and never finish the book. I suggested we set a 15 minute timer for deep analysis, then vote on whether to keep going or move on. It sounds simple, but it kept us from those endless circular debates. Anyone else find a good way to keep a book club discussion moving forward?
