Hi! I am reading a few short stories by Kate Chopin.
Is there a particular book version you are reading? :)

Ooo, I've heard of it but haven't got to read it yet.
I wish I could post a picture of my copy. I think mine is the Barnes and Noble Classic edition.
I am reading Patti Smith‘s newest and loving it
It's funny, I just popped in to see if this was active. I'm game to read along with something if someone starts a thread. :)
I just joined! Are we starting from the top or just read from the list and go for it?!
I think I’m gonna start with Alice in Wonderland. We’ll see, I need to look through the entire list.

Will we start a new thread for book group reading discussion somewhere else or keep going along this one here for a bit?
I never see the group doing things as a group. I’m reading gone with the wind and then after this the master and margarita. Feel free to friend me, I am very active with my overall goal. I love to see what others read!

Reading Scarlet and Rhett's characters and their full relationship added a lot.
Has any one got any suggestions for a good book to get out of a book slump?

Here's the one line summary from Wikipedia: "The novel tells the story of the fictional Old Hollywood star Evelyn Hugo (loosely based in part on Elizabeth Taylor), who at the age of 79 decides to give a final interview to an unknown journalist, Monique Grant."

Hi! I'm new here and don't know anything about this club but all i know is how much i love reading and how much i love G.G. So i think that here is the right place to be. So, nice to meet all of you ❤️
I'm new here to this group. Just started the list and it's a little daunting but really exciting! I have already read 27 of the books before accepting the challenge so I'm not going to re-read them.

I finished The Ninth House back in early January, I think. I heard about it on NPR. I am a fan of books set at colleges and universities, especially the Ivy League schools. The Ninth House was particularly interesting in the context of this book club, because Rory went to Yale.

I'm reading through the pandemic, from Harry Potter rereads to thriller books such as The House Swap by Rebecca Fleet ♥️
I joined not that long ago, and I'm starting this reading challenge through the Gilmore book club. I started it mainly because I wanted something more constructive to do during this pandemic, and I've enjoyed it so far. I can't believe how many books have been banned for what is normal in today's world.
I just joined. Loved the Gilmore girls show!!I am new on Goodreads, so add me if you're feeling friendly :)
Hello! I'm Valentina and I just joined :) I'm sorry I don't really know how these groups work, are there any current reads?
I’m still active and still reading through the list of books . Right now I’m reading Angela’s Ashes.
Hello, I’m reading Crazy Rich Asians. My next read will be Little Bee by Chris Cleave
hello! I'm still active. currently reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
I’m here! Reading A Gentleman in Moscow currently. :)
Angie wrote: "I’m still active and still reading through the list of books . Right now I’m reading Angela’s Ashes."One of my favorite books! I think I cried a bit in that one. The movie was close to the book, but it didn't deliver the same emotion (just seemed depressing).
Oh that is a great book. I was hesitant to read when it came out. But loved it.
I'm brand new to this group, but have been working on the RGBC for about a year! That, combined with books I happened to have read, I'm only about 45 in!! I'm debating trying The Divine Comedy next...!
I didn’t realise this group was not fully active. I’m going to post when I’ve read something mentioned in other posts however I’ve got my own list going on that I find it hard to deviate from so just hope to cross paths. I find describing what I’ve read quite hard, am not used to thinking about it and discussing but see it will do me good to practice.
What are you reading right now?

Hey there! even I am up for a discussion. I am currently reading "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle" by Haruki Murakami, what's your current read?
Oh okay. How's it going with you all?Has someone read "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle" before?
Mod
Has anyone read the divergent series.

I love the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo!! Such a good story with a plot line I just could not put down. Have you read Malibu Rising by the same author?
