[close] A group of friends who have diverse personalities and beliefs, looking for more members to add to their guild. Sometimes we read books and like to discuss them and how to use them to better ourselves and improve our lives and the lives of those around us. We like leadership books, some of us like manga, we like to write, we like (non-dirty) humor, and we like to have fun. And yes, some books have tails.
