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] Discussion Place for the Reading Challenge(s)

[close] The purpose to this group is to challenge all you avid readers out there to expand your reading beyond your preferred genres. Who knows you may find something you like that you didn't think you'd like... November Shelf was Witches December's Shelf is 1 January 2017's shelf will be TBD

[close] Holy crap like you wouldn't believe. Casey and Justin read some god damn books, and blow their own minds.

[close] Wyrd Book Shelf is a new YouTube based book club where authors, artists, and notable horror fans discuss a piece of horror, bizarro, or dark fiction each episode. This group will help decide what books and graphic novels we read in the future, and the some of the discussions and comments here will be brought up on the YouTube series.

[close] We read books, mostly around games or based in the same universe as games, and then talk about them!

[close] This group is for Mrs. Jonsson's students.

[close] Warriors Read is a book club created by the members of the Writing Warriors. We have a youtube channel where we host writing sprints, and we're currently branching out into a book club as well! Every month, we will be choosing a new-ish release (mostly in the realm of YA and/or Fantasy) and reading it together. There will be a set time and date for the live show discussions, and we will try to give as much notice as possible. We will also be choosing one book for another member to read (mostly every month, but possibly bimonthly). As we finish each book, we will have a discussion on our youtube channel talking about it. This one will not be live, but we hope to have one or two happen a month. Feel free to chat in the proper discussion boards about the books we are reading. *WARNING*: Spoilers WILL possibly be posted there, so avoid them if you haven't finished yet! If you would like to recommend a future Book of the Month, just add it to the shelf! *note*: there is a possibility that it won't be chosen, but we'd love to have your input.

[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.

[close] A group for readers of all genders who wish to broaden their reading horizons by reading more books by women authors. And more women authors that perhaps people haven't heard of before. Ultimately, with enough members, it would be great to have several group reads running in tandem. But for the moment each month's nominations will follow a different theme (e.g. Classics, Sci-Fi, Translated Fiction, LGBT, and Literary Award Winners).

[close] Are you searching for the NEXT best book? Are you willing to kiss all your spare cash goodbye? Are you easily distracted by independent bookshops, big name book stores, and library or used book sales? Are your bookshelves currently a little tight of space? Joining this group is highly addictive. In a matter of weeks, your TBR list will be longer than you are tall, you will be wondering how the heck you walked into a bookstore for one little book, and walked out with two bags crammed full of new novels you never knew you wanted. Your bookshelves will be bursting at the seams and you wont remember what color the rug was as it will be buried under all the new purchases you have made! We are not here to hold you back, or pat your hand as you try to be strong and cut back on your purchases. We will be rallying behind you, chanting your name as you enter the bookstore, and we will throw a book-party in your honor when you come back and share all the wonderful new books youve adopted with us! I would love for you to follow TNBBC on Facebook and Twitter!!! And be sure to check out book reviews and special indie series and spotlights on TheNextBestBookBlog.blogspot.com. **** If you are new to the group, and are an author, writer, blogger, moderator for another group, radio personality.. etc... please contact me by sending me a message before you post a new thread about your books, writings, blogs, groups, radio shows.. etc.. and also check out the Rules for posting those types of threads under the "Rules/ Important Announcements" folder.

[close] Do you want to broaden your reading horizons and discover new books, authors and genres? Do you love reading challenges? Do you live for competition? Do you have a hard time deciding what you want to read next? Or do you simply enjoy discussing books with fellow readers? Each season (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall) presents a new challenge with a series of reading related tasks. Each task is assigned a point level and then it's up to you to decide which tasks you'll attempt (or if you want to try to finish them all!) and then find and read the books that fit. It’s a fun way to stretch your reading radius and discover new books, authors, and genres. But be careful…it’s addictive! Your to-be-read shelf may never be the same! Begun by Cynthia in The Next Best Book Club, the SRC has grown through the participation of its members. To find out more about how the Seasonal Reading Challenge works, and how YOU can be a part of it, check out The Seasonal Reading Challenge Explained and Getting Started.
