Groups

[close] Goodreads Italia è un luogo d'incontro per gli utenti italiani e italofoni della piattaforma Goodreads. Il gruppo, nato nel 2010 e in costante evoluzione, è suddiviso in sezioni, la maggior parte delle quali si occupa prevalentemente di lettura, di libri e di tutto ciò che gravita attorno ad essi. Viene comunque dato respiro anche a svariati temi di carattere più generale, come ad esempio gli aiuti ai nuovi utenti o lo spazio off-topics. Per migliorare la gestione del gruppo, vi preghiamo di postare le varie discussioni nelle sezioni appropriate e di leggere il regolamento del gruppo. Grazie e benvenuti a tutti!

[close] Welkom bij Books Ever After! Het doel van de groep is lekker luchtig over boeken kletsen. We hebben geen verplichtingen. Spreekt een boek je minder aan, dan lees je 'm niet mee. We lezen van alles. We hebben sowieso altijd twee maandboeken: een fantasy/dystopian en een chicklit/contemporary. We hebben een overzicht van alles wat we (gaan) doen, want we hebben naast onze maandboeken hebben we iedere maand een readalong, een buddyread of een readathon. We kiezen al onze boeken samen met onze leden. We hebben ook onze eigen Reading Challenge! We hebben een eigen Instagramaccount waar we allerlei foto's van en over de club plaatsen. We regrammen vaak, vergeet dus niet de boekenfoto's de hashtag #BooksEverAfter mee te geven! Lijkt het je leuk? Sluit dan lekker aan (en stel jezelf even voor in het voorstelrondje) en hou je daarna aan onze regels: • Wees aardig voor elkaar, respecteer elkaars mening en gevoelens • Deel alles wat je wilt delen, maar doe het wel in de juiste en daarvoor bestemde topics • Heb het niet over illegale manieren om boeken te verkrijgen/verspreiden • Plaats alles dat ook maar enigszins een spoiler zou kunnen zijn in de spoilertag. Klik op "(some html is ok)" rechtsboven het gedeelte waar je een comment plaatst (webview, niet in de app). • Voel je vrij om jezelf te zijn en heb fun! Liefs Suus, Samantha, Priss, Lisa & Odette

[close] Oct 2016/ Nov 2016 Group Reads - The Trespasser by Tana French and The Girl Who Lied by Sue Fortin _ _ _ _ _ “It was a dark and stormy night. Lightning flashed and thunder rolled across the sky. Rain spattered a mysterious, hooded stranger who peered over the hedgerow at the darkened, quiet house.” Do lines like these quicken your heartbeat and pique your interest? Then Welcome to the Mystery, Crime and Thriller Group! This is the place for you. Join our intrepid moderators, “DCI” Donna, “Sherlock” Hayes, Nancy “Drew”, and “Cat Burglar” Bill as we read and discuss our favourites, recommend new authors and explore the Genre. This is the meeting place for readers to discuss their favourites and recommend new authors, and the place for budding and established mystery, crime and thriller writers to introduce us to their efforts. You can travel into the past to discover great characters like Sherlock Holmes, Inspector Maigret and others; journey around the world to other countries and meet Aussie Phryne Fisher, Norwegian Harry Hole and so many others; just relax on your couch and experience the wonders of Hercule Poirot, Lord Peter Wimsey, etc; or hard-boiled, tired gumshoes like Travis McGee and Kinsey Milhone. Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the wonderfully varied world that is Mystery, Crime and Thrillers. Join us and have a great time! Your Moderators: Donna, Hayes, Bill and Nancy.

[close] I began this group in January 2015 to support fellow indie authors by featuring them on my website blog. Since then it has turned into a great resource of helpful tips, marketing resources, and just overall support for all indie authors. You're welcome to join our group as long as you contribute and are encouraging in your comments. Please note, in order to fully enjoy our group and make it the best Self Publishing Resource that it can be, we ask that you give as much as you take. If you want your books to be read, read other Indie Author books. If you want help, give help in return. This is how Support for Indie Authors can be the Ultimate Self Publishing Resource and Indie Author Support Group. Please take a moment to read through our Read Me Topics under each Folder Category in order to get a better grasp of our guidelines and where you should you post your questions/comments/etc. Thank you all and Welcome to Support for Indie Authors! Don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter by visiting http://www.supportindieauthors.com/subscribe/ Sincerely, Ann Livi Andrews *Riley stole this from GG because everyone asks this question.* Bookwhack: Think about bookwhack as bird droppings. Everyone is having a picnic. The sun is shining. The food is good. The conversation is flowing. Then, suddenly a bird flies down and leaves a dropping, ruining the day for everyone. Bookwhacking is doing the same with your book. Going into threads and dropping your book name or cover or blurb without being invited to do so. You fly over, drop the bomb. and leave. Sometimes you stay to add a short comment but the sole purpose of it is to make people think you actually had something to say. In other words, it's finding any reason to push your book in the face of people who were not expecting it.
