Here's our discussion schedule. Just Kids has one large middle chapter surrounded by much smaller ones, so the schedule is more complicated than usual:
- Week One: Chapter one, "Monday's Children" using #1b140_1 as a hashtag for your tweets
- Week Two: Chapter two, "Just Kids," and into the first part of "Hotel Chelsea" #1b140_2
- Read until the section that opens with "Robert's great wish was to break into the world that surrounded Andy Warhol"
- Week Three: Finish chapter three, "Hotel Chelsea" #1b140_3
- Week Four: "Separate Ways Together" and "Holding Hands with God" #1b140_4
