The moderator shut down our debate for 10 minutes over one word in the bylaws
We were at the Millbrook Public Library arguing about whether the narrator in The Great Gatsby was actually reliable, and our moderator, a retired librarian named Phyllis, slammed her copy of the book on the table and yelled 'No more, this is a book club, not a courtroom,' which somehow led to a vote on adding a 'civility clause' to our rules, and now I'm wondering if anyone else's club has hit a wall so hard over a single interpretation that you just had to laugh and order pizza to reset the room?

Been there, our club nearly broke up over whether Holden was whiny or just sad, pizza saved us.
