Shelfari

[close] Do you have an original character in need of development? Do you wonder how they would react in certain situations? More often than not, the best way to figure this out is through a role play, and you've come to the right spot. This group is dedicated to creation and development of original characters through feedback and fun role playing situations~

[close] Do you buy more books than you could possibly read in a year? Belong to one or more book clubs? Scan the cereal box during breakfast just because you can't stop reading? Did you think Mr. Darcy was hot *before* you saw the movie version of Pride and Prejudice? Then you might be a bibliophile. This list is for people who love to read books in all genres. Each month, we will suggest, read and discuss several books as a group! Don't worry if you're not a fast reader, like me, because participation is optional. All book-related questions and discussions are welcome! Well, non-book-related too! After all, we're here to make friends! So, if you want to recommend a book (please, no spamming), find out if someone else recommends it or have a question about something you're reading, this is the place to be. Welcome and Happy Reading!

[close] I am not surprised by Amazon's purchase, but I do worry about the "culture" of GoodReads being overrun by adverts or "recommendations." How does everyone feel about the new ownership? What can we as readers and writers do to ensure continuity of the current esprit de corps?

[close] Founded in 2009, The Young Writer's Group was originally located on Shelfari.com (http://www.shelfari.com/groups/41041/about) as a community and forum for young writers and friends. We are proud to announce our relocation to Goodreads, and Tumblr (http://youngwritersgroup.tumblr.com/)!
