[close] Whether you prefer Faulkner, O'Connor, McCullers or more recent authors of Southern Literature such as Clyde Edgerton, Tom Franklin, William Gay, or Mark Childress, this is the place for you. We will have group reads of two book per month. Group reads will be based on member nominations and polls. While this group is not for adults only, I encourage our younger members to be old enough to attend R rated movies without accompaniment by an adult. The topics for discussion here are meant for mature audiences.

[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] Hello and welcome to The Book Theorists! Here, we'll be talking about any books at all, with any topics that were left uncovered, and that we could try to find out. Any genre is allowed, however it will have to be reviewed by the moderators! :)
