Hey mods
As u may have noticed a poll was sent out for reading a book together...poll is not yet closed but so far the majority of people are voting yes...

So I figured we might as well start putting together a list of books to read so we can send out another poll to get a consensus...

I'm thinking to get about 10 books of varying genres...

umm and as we have a few younger members we should be probs a bit careful as to wat we read...so maybe do a quick look up on wat the book has in it and stuff so we no...

Also Mo made a request for Honour Bound by Helen Harper (so I'll have to check this book out)

Thanks in advance for ur ideas

I like ur thoughts Anna...so we will maybe have a few choices in that department :) but idk some people I have spoken to that have dramas and problems in the real world don't necessarily enjoy reading them in books... but we can def incorporate a few :) if u have any suggestions in that area let me no :)

[[deleted user]]

Awesome...

I need to think of some books now lol...wow there's too many to choose from...

[[deleted user]]

I really like the sound of the first one :)

[[deleted user]]

[[deleted user]]

Okay lets start a list and i'll just edit it each time with the new book ideas :D

1. All the Light We Cannot See

4. Cruel Beauty
5. North and South

[[deleted user]]

[[deleted user]]

Room
The Martian
Don't Be a Jerk: And Other Practical Advice from Dogen, Japan's Greatest Zen Master
The Girl on the Train

[[deleted user]]

[[deleted user]]

Hahahaha lols thats not a bad thing lol....u dont want to be necessarily re-reading a whole heap of books....

But would u want to read any of them??

[[deleted user]]

Of course I want to, I've been wanting to for a while, just don't know if I can get the books, whichever one we end up reading

And that is so true about the re reading....never thought of that!
