Of course, I'm already aware of book clubs (often called "churches") that are devoted to the Bible, so I'm looking for a different example.

1. There's probably a book club for Ulysses by Joyce.
(Joyce's fans are a tad obsessive)

3. When you say bible, you are referring to Christians? How about Jews?
Two books, two clubs.

4. There are probably some people who spend an awful long time on Finnegans Wake.
Not me. I don't have that kind of time.

5. I assume more than a few have been started for Going Rogue.

Especially because most Going Rogue readers don't read any other book but the Bible.
