[close] Reading takes you places. Where in the world will your next book take you? If you love world literature, translated works, 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 50,000 books cataloged by setting and more are added each month.

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] Readers of the strange and unusual are sure to find a home in The Grim Readers Society. We are a society of readers who marvel at the macabre, delight in tales of dread, and sustain ourselves on the supernatural. We are not a traditional book club, instead all members are free to read whatever they choose whenever they choose. The society offers a place to find book recommendations from other readers and connect with those who enjoy the same types of books as each other. I run a Halloween/Horror YouTube channel. Having found many people who enjoy reading the same spooky books as myself, I wanted to created a place where we could all swap book recommendations, chat about our latest finds, and cultivate a passion for reading. I've never been a fan of the traditional book club setup. I've always hated being told that I *have* to read a particular book. So with The Grim Readers Society, I want everyone to be free to choose their own materials. I think we'll have much more fun that way! Every month on my YouTube Channel I'll be doing a review and giveaway of one of my recent reads, so be sure to subscribe to @CromwellWitch, so you don't miss a chance to take home a book and some awesome extra goodies.

[close] Welcome to the Saucy Wenches Book Club. We love to read a variety of genres. In particular urban fantasy, fantasy and mystery are the main genres the group reads. We do read other genres if a series or book catches our interest. Join us for our monthly Book of the Month, Full Series Read and Yearly Challenge.
