[close] Might as well start a book group because I had no idea this was a thing...

[close] Welcome to the book club for kids that don't read good. The books covered can be anything (though not everything..sorry for the misnomer) we feel like covering, but they may circle around historical fiction, crime and well-known works of fiction. Books and meeting times are decided by the whole group every two months, but discussions can also take place in the forums! The group is public and anyone can join, but be aware that me meet up in person sometimes.

[close] This global discussion group has been designed to encourage debates about important and underreported issues of our era. All you need is an enquiring mind and a desire to gain or share “underground knowledge”. This is also a place for readers to discuss the controversial topics explored in The Underground Knowledge Series – which includes the non-fiction books Genius Intelligence, Medical Industrial Complex & Bankrupting the Third World – by James Morcan & Lance Morcan.
