All About Animals discussion

Ask questions about the group here.

I just want to comment that if you have noticed that a book you added to the bookshelf has been taken off it's because that's the book group shelf of books we have read each month.

But, if you'd like to add them to discuss that is fine. Thanks.

I wonder if anyone has read this book?

Stray buy Mark Matthews. I haven't but it got positive reviews by some GR friends that generally tell it like they see it.

I wanted to know more about it, of course, I will read it, but, I have a huge TBR. I want to know where in the TBR to put it? (the probably will read end of the stack, or the probably will skip part of the stack.

I think you should Make a Chat Thread.

Jacob, sure, no problem.

:)

Wait Barbara could we talk about other books that the group already read? http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1... or we can't talk about any books in the groups bookself

Yes, any books you'd like to read.

Cayr,

When the month's book group picks are up they have a * beside them to hold them toward the top of the page. After that book month has been read I take off the * and let it go with the other threads.

If someone post on it then it will get pushed back up to the top.

I try to keep our book group reads for the month we are reading and the following coming up months threads locked to the top of the "book discussions" so they don't get lost.

Sorry if this is a stupid question (am still very new to Goodreads!) but I wanted to add a comment to the discussion on your current read (The Art of Racing in the Rain) - I haven't read it yet but my husband has - but when I scrolled to the bottom of the 'Activity' on that book, there wasn't a box for me to type into? I don't know - why won't it let me add a comment?

Thank you,
Hsin-Yi

No question is stupid. This was my fault. I forgot to add the thread for the discussion for the Aug. books. It's fixed now. You can either enter the discussion under Activity for the book at the top of the group, or go to book discussions in the thread. They should be linked together so either one is fine.

Thanks, Barbara! :-)

I will look into where I can set up live chat.

I don't know how many of us have Skype. I know everyone can log onto FB and all be in chat at the same time.

Okay, I'm not sure then. I will look around. Unless some others have suggestions on where to have live chats.

Oops! Didn't I change it? Will check now. Sorry.

Not exactly about the group but, since I am old, some things don't come naturally. I have posted reviews on GoodReads but not too often and each time I have to figure it out by trial and error all over again. Are there instructions anywhere? And it's not just posting reviews. Thanks for any help.

Glad War Dogs will be discussed (Jan). I just got it and will have the review done later this month, hopefully. Another similar book out is Top Dog - I think it is about Cairo, the dog who choppered in to get UBL.

Skye, There is a help section in Goodreads. What do you need to know? If I can help in any way I will.
