[close] Reading takes you places. Where in the world will your next book take you? If you love world literature, travel writing, or exploring the world through books, you have come to the right place! ATW80 began in 2009 as a challenge on TNBBC. The separate group was established in 2011. Anyone can join and participate in the challenges or readings at any time. Challenge participation is not a requirement of joining. Anyone who loves reading books from around the world is welcome here. The main purpose of this group is to travel the world through books, experiencing new authors and cultures along the way. Want to read about the world? We have close to 40,000 books cataloged by setting and more are added each month. "The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” - Dr. Suess “There are too many books I haven’t read, too many places I haven’t seen, too many memories I haven’t kept long enough.” ― Irwin Shaw

[close] Welcome to A Million More Pages. We are a challenge-based reading group that runs seasonal challenges centered around themes. February 1, 2018 through June 30, 2018 is our Fairytale Adventure. Come with me And you'll be In a world of pure imagination Take a look And you'll see Into your imagination Journey with AMMP, through the Enchanted Forest, to the land of Happily Ever After. Along the way we'll meet beautiful princesses, fight fearsome dragons, and maybe even rescue a prince or two. We'll dodge curses, explore magic, and, of course, we'll go to the ball. And over the bodies of the giants and ogres we slay we just might make some new bookish friends! Join us for five months of magic and mayhem starting February 1st. This theme will be a points based theme, with teams being randomly assigned as you sign up. Sign up HERE By participating in challenges you earn Badges. They are just for fun but many people like to collect their badges as a way to display their reading accomplishments. You can participate in as many or as few challenges as you like...it's all for fun. For more game based challenges please join us at our sister group Game Night

[close] This group helps to bring Reviewers and Authors together! Reviewers can make their own thread to post their reviews in, or post their reviews in the relevant Genre folder. Authors can make their own thread in the Author's folder to find reviewers for their book. Please provide the synopsis of the book, and details of how to obtain a copy. Author threads more than a month old will be deleted in order to keep the folder organised and up to date.

[close] I wanted to create a group for like-minded readers... adults and young adults, who want to find books to read-'in all genres', that have no- to-only occasional 'mild' profanity, and are 'clean' with no graphic sex/rape, abuse, gruesome violence/gore, and no- to-only limited.. religious proselytizing.
