Classics

[close] Welcome to our group! This group is for everyone. We have monthly reads, games and challenges, general discussions and a special corner for authors. I want this to be a fun and relaxed place for everyone. A place for readers to get together, discuss book and make friends. A positive atmosphere for bookworms. Even if you don't drink coffee, you are more than welcome to join!! :) This is a brand new group so we are still working on some stuff but please feel free to join us and invite your friends!!!

[close] “Books loved anyone who opened them, they gave you security and friendship and didn't ask for anything in return; they never went away, never, not even when you treated them badly. ” ― Cornelia Funke, Inkheart Welcome to Drop Everything And Read Express your love for books if you are addicted to them. Meet others who share the same opinions as you and also increase your knowledge by reading numerous books. New members are always welcome. Email us: dropeverythingandreadgoodread@gmail.com

[close] We're here because we like reading and we like chatting about reading. But we are here especially because we strongly believe that reading is not just something we do alone, but something that can unite people of different kinds, all over the world! This group really is all about books! In terms of group reads we have a monthly fiction book and a bi-monthly group read of a classic. We feature dedicated sections for non-fiction, poetry, short stories and drama. We also have weekly poetry postings (the Monday Poem). Quarterly there is a group discussion of non-fiction books in which members are encouraged to read books that relate to a specific theme and another theme for short stories. We feature a yearly challenge which varies from year to year in form. In addition, we have a section for people to post their yearly personal challenges and books read during the year.

[close] We are 'Read Runners' - measuring our lives by pages read, books completed, and discussions had. Join us, if you enjoy reading - whether slow or quick, and if you like to discuss and put your points forward. We read a lot from different genres, and love to break out of our comfort zones and explore new books/authors through our group reads, buddy reads, and individual reads too. The single most important part of this group, its soul, are the members. And, we have a strong policy of respect for the individual and a zero tolerance approach towards bad behaviour. (Of course, thunder and lightning, and the hammer of Thor might strike you down as well!) Therefore, what we recommend is - Keep calm and read a book!
