I know there aren't a whole lot of people but to spice things up a bit is anyone interested in doing a small group read? A group read, for those of you who may not know, is where we read a book for a month and discuss it. If so let me know and please post some suggestions and I'll make a poll if there's enough interest at this point! Thanks!

I'd say yes but I have a ton of book commitments.

How about a The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter ?

I have this book as a TBR.

Sounds good everyone! I'll see if anyone else is interested or has any of the books so we can have some discussion on these!

I'd love to! I recommend/suggest/nominate The Summoning (Darkest Powers, #1) by Kelley Armstrong and Bitten (Women of the Otherworld, #1) by Kelley Armstrong both by Kelley Armstrong. I've been wanting to read these for a while. :)

Is there supposed to be a specific theme or topic?

I wasn't planning on it. Should there be? I was thinking for a monthly challenge we could do stuff like Fairytale theme or non-paranormal or other stuff. Should there be a theme?

You can have a theme if you want, but it's not mandatory. I was just asking because then it would be easier for me to suggest a book or two. :)

Really? Aren't you going to read The Forest of Hands and Teeth? I can't since I don't have it. And I can't get it from the library because books like that are always on a huge waiting list. You'd probably have to go months before it comes out to get a good spot on the waiting list, lol. That's why I buy almost all my books, I used to until I discoverd swaptree.com! Anyway, I'll try to get a poll up so we can start at a resonable time in June or maybe it should be July? What do you all think?

I can't read TFOHAT because I don't have it. :( Went to look for it, and they had one left, but someone had moved it from where it was supposed to be. I'm sure it's gone by now :[ We buy all of our books as well. We used to go the library, but then my mom just like never took us back. Haven't been there since like 4th grade...

And I think we should start in like mid/late-June. Or at the beginning of July if that's what you want. It doesn't really matter to me either way. :)
