Sarah wrote: "I just want to read all of the books in the world! Someone told me on average how many books one person can read in their lifetime and it made me sad!"
nwhat was the answer? Making me depressed already just thinking about it

Including books to be read in December...

Classics: 15/20
Modern: 17/20
Buddies: 2/2

I am actually trying is to read everything the group is reading or has read, so desperately trying to catch-up always.

Missing books thus far:
One Hundred Years of Solitude
A Tale of Two Cities
The Sun Also Rises
Dune - halfway through
Lord of the Flies - halfway through
Dark Matter
Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch
American Gods - halfway through

Hey all! To those interested in starting a writing group or some sort of writing challenge...

Was thinking at the turn of the new year, we could make it official and add either a writing challenge, or a folder dedicated to those interested in being part of a writing group/sub-group. Anyone can join as long as they are a willing participant.
Still mulling over ideas here, any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated!
Some ideas below:
- similar to NaNoWriMo, have a challenge to write x number of pages every day for a certain period of time. Challenge would obviously be all honesty based as there's no formal way to track on Goodreads.
- similar challenge but instead of pages written, it would be words written.
- "Buddy Writing" - pair up people with similar writing goals who are willing to read, edit, and give feedback to their buddy.
- Group writing - similar to buddy writing, but writers can get feedback from a whole group of people.

WOOOOO big week everyone.

Tally is updated!

Totally your preference. You can post anything that you completed between Aug 1st and now, or just what you've read going forward. Can be any book, not just HP series.

Welcome, Xemai!

And welcome Catherine, Alejandra, Ray, and Audre!!

So many new faces here - glad to have you all.

Welcome, Mary, D, Jodi, Aly, Andy, Catherine, Zilchero, Stephanie, and Emily!

Apologies for not welcoming you sooner, been away for a few days. Hope you find some great recommendations here and can join us for some group reads!

I think we missed a few posts somewhere...

Total Group Pages = 364,605

Thanks, Sarah!

Hi Boradicus. We have not read The Sheltering Sky as a group, so unfortunately not eligible here. Based on publication date, please comment on one of the other threads for BOTM eligibility. Thank you!

Welcome, Rai! Similar boat, started American Gods and stalled 1/3 of the way... gunna try and finish with the group this month, but unlikely. Hopefully we'll eventually both finish.

Welcome, Hibi! Hope you can join us for some group reads.
