[close] This group is for people who want to participate in the Popsugar reading challenge for 2018. This year the Popsugar website posted a reading challenge that included a list of 40 different ways to choose your next book to read plus an additional 10 for an "advanced challenge". In this group we will follow those lists (whether you do all 50 or stick to 40) to choose books to read for 2018. Starting January 1, 2018 we will compare books, lists and the number of books we've all read from the list. Anyone is welcome in this group so feel free to invite your friends!

[close] This is a group for ALL of our feminist friends and family. We will be reading all sorts of books and collections in this club and hope to include a variety of prose and poetry from diverse authors throughout history. Just because we are a feminist group does not mean that every work need be a groundbreaking manifesto or call to action, we also welcome great works of fiction by feminists as well as biographies and memoirs about women's rights champions. For our fellas: if you have a book that challenges male stereotypes and toxic masculinity or really pushed you to call yourself feminist let us know. Feminism is about all perspectives and open communication that work towards a free and happy tomorrow for everyone. Suggestions are welcome from all members! If you know of a book we'd love to read or would like to lead discussion on a book you've already read, add it to our group bookshelf and leave a post for us to vote on.

[close] Welcome to our group! We are a friendly group whose goal is to read through Boxall’s list of 1001 books. Many of us were together as a group over at Shelfari but then migrated over here. We love new members and we hope you feel at home in our group! We are a little different from the larger 1001 Goodreads group because we are a smaller, more intimate, group and this allows us to have more in-depth discussion of books. Each month we vote and select books from Boxall's list. We also do longer seasonal reads, an annual read, and various reading challenges throughout the year. We hope you jump right in and start exploring the list with us.

[close] Click HERE for the latest group announcements. "It reminded me of ____ but in space." "I read ____ in high school, and actually liked it." "It's like a cross between ____ and ____ with a little Harry Potter thrown in." "YOU'VE NEVER READ ____?!?" You know the drill. Your friends reference it, your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/"sort of thing?" raves about it, even your favorite movies quote it, or it IS your favorite movie but you've never read the book. This group is for those of us for whom one of the following may apply... - we have finally developed a taste for reading and are severely behind on classics; - we kindaaa, sortaaa, but actually slept through English class in high school and used Sparknotes/Hollywood remakes to write our book reports; - we buy a book that everyone is talking about and it sits on our shelf, and sits there... and sits there; - we've heard the hype and are finally getting around to reading the actual book; - we want to expand our horizons beyond the single genre we usually read and want to do so with some time-tested material; - we just plain old want to get everyone off our backs for not having read _____. Every month we'll choose three books to read: 1) a classic (that everyone has probably read but us), 2) a "modern" classic or popular book that everyone is talking about, and 3) a bookshelf catch-up in which we choose a book the group has already read to catch-up with other members.

[close] Officially 10k Members Strong & Climbing!! Building and supporting a community of self-published authors dedicated to both sharing experiences and learning as equals. Founded in January 2015, this groups was initially designed as a way for me to support indie authors by reading their work and featuring them on my website.

With the help of some patient and efficient moderators, Riley Amos Westbrook, BB Wynter, VM Sawh, Christina McMullen, Dwayne Fry, GG Atcheson, Melissa Jensen, Ashley Capes, J. Daniel Layfield, & CB Archer, Support Indie Authors fights to help indie authors rise above the stigma that is self publishing, as well serves to provide a supportive environment for those who want to share experiences, ask for help, and simply find some friends with common goals.

King, Gregory Boyle, Adam Kahane, Gandhi, Burt Berlowe, & our moderator Caroline Cottom. Everyone is welcome to nominate books.
