Well, I had the secret poll (since we're all too biased and would choose ourselves, at least I would because I am shameless) and KJ won.

dior_anghel, you weren't on the poll! I'm sorry! I checked the entry when I made the poll and you were planning to read it but hadn't yet. Augh! We need a better system.

OR NOT, since systems are for book clubs ( Read more... )

This is certainly not a challenge.

(The Better Late Than Never version). Also, this might be interesting considering we have fannish people and librarians and scholars here.

You’ve just reached the end of a book . . . what do you do now? Savor and muse over the book? Dive right into the next one? Go take the dog for a walk, the kids to the park, before even thinking about the next ( Read more... )

March check-in!

heyheyrenay wrote in notabookclub Mar 17, 2008 23:03

The book that absolutely was not the book club choice for March is Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer. March is half over and to be eligible to choose the book we most certainly won't be reading for April, members of the community must have read Life As We Knew It (not that we'll be discussing it, or anything).

I know owlmoose and myself have read ( Read more... )

sunday's not-challenge

I'M SORRY .

I realize I should have posted this way earlier because I am on such a different time zone from you. Therefore, some of you might only get this on Monday. It's early Sunday for me, but... *sigh*

Well. Apologies over with, onto this week's non-challenge.

What book(s) would you absolutely never want made into movies, and why?

For me I think ( Read more... )

I saw this question and went, "We totally don't have a book club full of people who love to write fanfiction." So here we are. :)

__________ would have been a much better book if ______________________. [link]

I think the problem is deciding where to stop, in my case. Short answers as well as long answers totally not encouraged. >.>

GUYS! (and by guys I actually mean first_seventhe), I AM SO SORRY. Last Friday was supposed to be a new project and I COMPLETELY FORGOT. That said, I've finally remembered and so for this week Sunday will actually be Friday and since it's the first week that is okay ( Read more... )

booklist: world war ii

Of course, everyone loves lists. I'm not sure there's anything cooler to me in the world of lists than a list of books by theme, that I can peruse for interesting reading. What's even cooler, there are loads of us here (definitely not gathered as any sort of book club) to build and/or contribute to various lists ( Read more... )

This is not a challenge

It's not technically Sunday yet, but if I'd put my clocks forward an hour already then it would be, so I suppose it's okay to go ahead and post. ;)

My question is: Sequels!

What stand-alone book would you most like to see a sequel for and why? If it were up to you, what would the sequel be about?

For me, it has to be Sunshine by Robin McKinley ( Read more... )
