I’m really excited to announce that we’re starting a real, honest-to-goodness book club via our Patreon. Each month we’ll choose a book (or chapter selection, if we’re working through a longer book) to read, and have a discussion via Discord in the last week of the month.
If you're not already a Patreon member and would like to take part, then you can join here: www.patreon.com/c/digitalhammurabi
The book club is available on all paid tiers, and I’ll also collect questions for the author and try to arrange YouTube interviews, so even if you're not a Patreon member you can still join in!
I’d love book suggestions for future books, but I want to start with “Enheduana: Princess, Priestess, Poetess” by Athena Gadotti. It’s only 114 pages, and it’s an easy (but absolutely fascinating) read.
