##Welcome to r/MensLibRary, the r/MensLib reading group!

This MensLib-affiliated community is for Men's Libbers to read and discuss as a group books that speak to men, men's issues, and masculinity.

Each month we'll choose one book, alternating between fiction and nonfiction, with dedicated threads each week for groups of chapters. Moderators will provide discussion prompts, with hopes that the community generates its own ideas and questions for the conversation.

Time Period	Content
June 2017	Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood
June 10	Chs. 1-3
June 17	Chs. 4-7
June 24	Chs. 8-12
July 1	Chs. 13-15 and Wrap-up
July 2017	TBD
