Hi Isobel
Iain Banks or Iain M Banks? such a good writer, and such a loss when he died :( though it was a good excuse to reread some of my favourites: Wasp Factory is amazingly creepy, isn't it?

Always nice to have a husband who appreciates you reading a lot :)

If you like fantasy you might want to head over to our RPG quest. We also have lots of other reading challenges both short and long and Book of the Month reads.

Hello!

If you like hot air balloons you may want to try out the Around the World in 80 days reading challenge. There's also lots of other challenges to try out if you're looking for a way to choose your next book.

The Book of the Months are also a good way to read things you wouldn't have chosen or known about but may still enjoy.

[Leelynn]

Hi Kelly, is there anything you would suggest for me in getting started?

[Amanda]

Leelynn wrote: "Hi Kelly, is there anything you would suggest for me in getting started?"


Hi Leelynn!

Kelly may have some different recommendations, but if you're into reading challenges I'd suggest the Harry Potter Sorting Hat challenge.

And of course, we always have a lot of buddy reads going on.

Hey! I actually just finished The Martian! I loved it. And now I'm reading Yes Please by Amy Poehler, which I'm also loving. I will look into the Around the world in 80 days group. Thanks for being so nice and welcoming! I'm really new to groups on goodreads (this is actually the only one I've ever have been in) so it helps to have nice people helping me out! I can't wait for book discussions, I'm looking forward to the discussion about The Martian. Am I right in thinking that the discussion will start on the finish date posted next to the book info? Feb. 28th or so? Thanks again! <3

Are you interested in a challenge that is mostly for fun and you can use whatever you're currently reading or one that forces you to explore a bit and maybe pick books that are outside your to-read list?

Also, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out our RPG Challenge. It's a bit intimidating at first but there's lots of friendly people to answer questions and it gives you a little bit of everything challenge wise.
