Jo’s comments from the Our Shared Shelf group.

Totally agree with all you say Lisa Maria. :)

It was a great event, hopefully the video might be up at some point later today - but no promises. ;-)

This is great :) the negative comments don't bother me, you can't please everybody.

Thanks Ash ;-)

Please can you check the "Book Suggestions" thread:

Many thanks :)

I think this case is disgusting and completely messed up.

There is something seriously wrong with the court system.

Even if (for now) these are just 'allegations' against Dr Luke and nothing has yet been proven, nobody should be forced to work with somebody that they do not feel safe with - it's a basic human right.

Me too, would love to see people sending more pictures ;)

Romina wrote: "FOUR DAYS, YOU GUYS!!!!! I'm so excited to see the video since I won't be able to go!!"

Yes, I don't know how long after the event the video will be live, but it will be posted as soon as humanly possible!

Sounds good, I shall be sure to mention it to...others ;-)

No. I will ask her to check us out, but she has other communities that she belongs too - she is the most amazing artist and she does podcasting, so her time is well used up already on things that she loves :)

Nicely written Vishnu :D

Wowza this thread is now half about selfies (or Shelfies) and half about urine and SheWee's?
I'm really hoping people don't decide to merge the two together...nobody needs to see a selfie of that.
AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THA'

I think i'll wait for the DVD ;-)

Sounds like a winner!

I feel for anyone that suffers with mental illness, my best friend has chronic depression and I feel useless because I cannot cure it. I think all of us lucky ones who do not suffer with it can just be there for our friends and loved ones, According to my friend just talking to me about it helps her - she says she has to arrange things to look forward to, so that everyday there is something to spur her on.

According to 'The Bookseller', sales of Gloria Steinem's "My Life on the Road" have soared by 109% since Emma launched Our Shared Shelf:

What exactly do you need help with?

Basi..."

Do you not have an icon on your photo screen that lets you reverse the camera? (so that it's pointing at you).

Joe, you can find lots of discussion about the first book in the category dedicated entirely to it: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...

Your welcome :)
