1920s

[close] Remember when literature died after 1930 because of radio and then TV and then VCRs and then the internet? I don't either! Let's explore together... Basically, I've noticed that all the really great books came out in the 20s. So I plan to read a) only books from the 1920s for 13 months starting Christmas week 2012 and ending the third week of January 2014, or b) 13 books from the 1920s over the course of 2013. Join me!

[close] Join along to read twenty books set during the roaring (19)20s in 2020! Or read 20 books published in 1920...or a little of both! Recommend books to other "bright young things" and share your reads and reviews. We'll have a discussion of sorts on the 20th of each month.

[close] It's a pleasure to meet with members of GoodReads.com to discuss my first novel, "Even Sunflowers Cast Shadows." I will be available to answer questions between January 25 and February 24, 2011.

[close] Do you love mysteries written in the "English" style? Why not come and join us? We are an established group of mystery readers, which has just re-launched in 2020. We read and share about every sort of English mystery, and have an optional group read once a month. We read from the "Golden Age" novels of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers to the "cosy mysteries" of Simon Brett; through series and stand-alone quick to read "whodunits", to bang up to date modern lengthy novels, heavy on the psychology. You might prefer Ruth Rendell, P.D. James, Colin Dexter, or Kate Atkinson ... or a myriad of others. Or perhaps you like the classic 19th century mysteries by Wilkie Collins or featuring Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes? Whatever your personal choice, you will find fellow aficionados here. Welcome!
