[close] Feed your Reading Challenge Addiction Here!!! We offer a wide range of challenges across many different themes/genres/subjects! We have mini, monthly, and yearly challenges that will allow even the busiest of persons a chance to take part!

[close] We are an international group who share an interest in reading all genres of books. We focus on four main areas: 1. Monthly Group Themed Read. Each month our members select a small set of related books to read and discuss as a group. See our bookshelves to see our past reads. 2. Challenges. We have monthly challenges based on various themes. We also have a year-long challenge. 3. Bi-monthly TBR Topplers. Now that we've given you all sorts of recommendations, we support your efforts to read the books that you've shelved. Every other month join us in a 'read-a-thon' to help reduce your groaning shelves. 4. Buddy Reads. Do you want to read a book and discuss it with others? Our Buddy Read section is open for this purpose. We're a relaxed, non pressure group of folks who just want to have fun, and to read some great books in the process.

[close] Are you ready to set your 2019 reading goal? This is a supportive, fun group of people looking for people just like you. Track your annual reading goal here with us, and we have challenges, group reads, and other fun ways to help keep you on pace. There will never be a specific number of books to read here or pressure to read more than you can commit to. Your goal is five? Great! You think you want to read 200? Very cool! We won't kick you out for not participating regularly, but we'll love it if you do. Join us!

[close] If you love to read romance novels, or just read, and you like reading challenges, come and join this group. If you look at your TBR list and don't know which book to start with, worry no more. We will give you a reason to. We have a variety of reading challenges, monthly book recommendations, buddy reads, book-and non-book-related discussions, author interviews/giveaways and plenty of fun and games to keep you entertain while hanging out with a bunch of people that love to read and talk about books. Happy Reading!

[close] This group is for people participating in the Popsugar reading challenge for 2019. 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 2019. Starting January 1, 2019 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] A group for readers of all genders who wish to broaden their reading horizons by reading more books by women authors. And more women authors that perhaps people haven't heard of before. We currently run two group reads each month: One monthly group read, each following a different theme (e.g. Classics, Sci-Fi, Translated Fiction, LGBT etc.) with the odd 'Open Choice' month. Our second group read alternates between Non-Fiction book and our 'Read Around the World' challenge where we pick a book from a country we haven't 'visited' before' 2019 Reading Plan Rules 1. This is not a women-only group. All genders are welcome, and all should be made to feel welcome. 2.That said, this group is intended to be a safe space. Disagreement is fine but harassment or trolling will not be tolerated. 3. Always remember that good feminism is intersectional! Authors 1. No self-promotion.

[close] This is a group for people who want to read old books and classics and then discuss them as a group.

[close] We want to read fun stuff as a group and do lots of buddy reads on the side. And we like to chat a bit, too. Friends don't let friends read alone:) Please note: One of the reasons our group works so well is that we are a small group of engaged members. If a member is completely inactive for 6 months and has not communicated with one of the group moderators, then we may remove them from the group. In this way we limit the group to those individuals who are truly interested in participating, and we maintain the environment that makes SpecFic Buddy Reads the kind of group our members want.
