Join The “Lost” Book Club
As a fairly new fan of the show “Lost,” I’ve been going a little crazy without the show. I only started watching it a few months ago, starting with seasons 1, 2, and 3 on DVD, and then catching up with season 4 on my TiVo. In a short span of time I had watched all four seasons, and now I have to wait for January 2009 to see new episodes. What’s a girl to do?
Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, the creators of “Lost,” have come up with a summer reading list for the fans. It’s called The Lost Book Club and features any book mentioned on the show, referenced by the show, or read by a character (most likely Sawyer) on the show. Most of which, I would guess, are available for the Kindle.
Titles include On the Road by Jack Kerouac, Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut, and Carrie by Stephen King. Even more impressive is that you can sort the book list by season and even watch clips that show where in the episode the book was mentioned. There’s also a message board for the book club where you can discuss the books with other fans.
I’ll be starting my Lost Book Club experience with Slaughterhouse Five, a book I always intended to read. In fact, the list bears a striking resemblance to some of my high school summer reading lists. You can join The Lost Book Club here.
