Thank you for understanding.
GRE English Literature 28 books / 48 members / 13 posts This group that has been started with the small yet vain hope that there are other people out there tucked away in local libraries, coffee shops and bookstores studying for the GRE English Literature subject test. The intention is not only to discus books that are read in preparation for the test but the test itself, grad school and whatever else may come up. And feel free to join in if you don't have any idea what ETS stands for but you just enjoy talking about classic literature.

The Rory Gilmore Book Club 118 books / 429 members / 737 posts "Behold, the thing that reads a lot!"
~Lorelai Gilmore

This group contains books read by all the characters of the show, mainly Rory, Lorelai, Richard, Paris, and Jess. As soon as Shelfari lets me tag group books, I'll have them all sorted out.

The group is for the Gilmore Girls enthusiast, those of us who not only watch the show for the crazy Gilmore Gossip, but who also watch and wonder just what the heck Rory is reading next.


~How we work~
We'll be reading a book a season:
Winter: December, January, February, March
Spring: April, May
Summer: June, July, August, September
Fall: October November

Winter & Summer will be reserved for reading the larger novels Rory has on her shelf, so that reading is not overwhelming and remains fun!


Please feel free to revive old discussions. Just because the season's over, doesn't mean we still can't read and discuss!


*Special Thanks to lifer_refil - whose maniacal obsession with Gilmore Girls helped to bulk up this shelf! =)
Book Chat 1084 books / 1417 members / 8091 posts Welcome to Book Chat!

Instead of being about a particular book, author or genre this group is about books and reading in general. Discussions have covered a wide variety of topics, from bookmarks, to book type preference (paperback, hardcover or trade paperback) to book-to-movie tie-ins, to where and when you read and even what started you reading.

We also have some fun new projects starting and we hope you will join us.

Tenia has started a Secret Reader (aka Secret Santa) where we will exchange gently used books.

Tenia has also started a monthly book read. Our first group read will start in January and we are currently taking votes on several books that were nominated for the fiction genre.

We are also currently taking nominations for books for February and March. Our February read will be horror and our March read will be chick lit.

A discussion book raffle of sorts will be starting very soon so be sure to check back for details.

Feel free to pop-in and have a look around. We would love to have you join us for some discussion and fun.

Your admins...Kelly and Tenia

English Majors/Minors 218 books / 313 members / 514 posts This group is for English majors or minors, but anyone is welcome. What I hope to attract with the group title are literature analysts, people who thoroughly enjoy studying novels, short stories, essays, whatever. Maybe I can even lure in some who actually like to peruse a bit of criticism now and then, though I must admit only the most intriguing topics can take me this far.

50 Book Challenge! 4688 books / 4689 members / 31138 posts Welcome to the 50-Book Challenge! We are not listless. In fact, we love lists ...

A list of the books we've been looking forward to, for example, can be found by following this link:

http://astore.amazon.com/allencotrip-20

Our challenge is to read 50 books in one year. OR ... establish a goal for yourself more or less, it's up to you, just because we say 50 books doesn't mean that has to be your goal too.

To join, all you need to do is start a thread, WITH YOUR NAME IN THE SUBJECT OF YOUR ORIGINAL POST, and log your books (with title and author, please.) Reviews are always welcome as well. It is a very good idea to bookmark your post (when in your post, add it to your internet browser's favorites)for quick access for future updates. Things move quickly around here.

If you haven't been keeping track of the books you've read, start when you join.

I enjoy reading your lists, and my TBR pile has grown as a result and I've read books I wouldn't have otherwise (The Hunger Games, I'm talking to you ...)

It doesn't have to be all lists all the time, though ... People enjoy it when you comment on their lists as well, so when you update your list ... take a minute and browse around. You never know what you might find. (Water For Elephants, I'm talking to you.)

Wildcat AP 51 books / 76 members / 137 posts This site is dedicated to the brave souls who are taking or who have taken Ms. Waters' AP English Lit and Comp class at Meridian High School.

A few instructions and reminders:

1) Good English reigns here, too. Write in complete sentences and DO NOT use "internet shorthand". What you do on your own pages is your business, of course, but any discussion thread on this site needs to be standard English.

2) I will add books we are reading together as a class to the Group Shelf. Any book you'd like to add to the shelf (or are adding as a part of an assignment) needs to be of AP quality. If you're not sure whether or not it is, ask me. Remember, on your Shelfari page, you can put whatever you like.

3) Remember that there is a Shelfari widget in Facebook. Also remember that our school computers are currently set to block Facebook.

4) Politeness is mandatory. Show respect for all the opinions posted here even if they differ greatly from your own. No profanity or vulgarity is allowed. Posters violating this policy will find their grade suffers as a result.

5) Posts need to be meaningful. "Me, too", "I hated it", "I loved it", and so forth as the sole body of a post do not a meaningful post make.....

Crowell's IBers 9 books / 1 members / 0 posts Fellow Ribault IBers and book lovers (and non-lovers of books, because I know you're out there, too) - we'll use this group to discuss the books we are reading in class plus others that you find that might interest the group. I need not remind you, I hope, to keep your conversations at all times professional and nonjudgemental. Your grade will depend upon my ability to identify you, firstly, and upon your frequency and depth of participation. We'll talk about what that means. First off, let's start with Ellen Foster, your summer read. What's your general assessment of this book? Be candid, professional, and detailed in your discussions, please. Mrs. C.
Punctuation for sticklers 19 books / 2 members / 7 posts This group is for all the sticklers out there who bemoan the sight of a misplaced comma, cringe at a sentence that has the audacity to begin with a subordinating conjunction, and simply shrivel up and die as a result of the abuse wrought on the hapless semicolon. This is dedicated to all those who: leap six feet into the air at the mere mention of "Eats, Shoots & Leaves;" are lobbying to have a statue of Lynne Truss erected in all English-speaking countries across the globe; and those who squabble for hours on end about whether or not the Oxford Comma is justified. Three cheers for punctuation! Oh, one more thing: it's a huge plus if you LOATHE chick lit, shudder at the very mention of it, and would rather be subjected to the flames of hell than have the grime of that filth touting itself as "literature" stain your fingertips. Ugh.

Historical Fiction 942 books / 1397 members / 3971 posts I was shocked there was no "historical fiction" group so I'm going to try this.
Your books can be from any era and style as long as they are historical fiction!
I am always on the lookout for new books so please add/suggest as many as you like!
As you can see from my shelf and the group's shelf we have a loose interpretation of what is "historical fiction" and a varied taste in books.
Questions about how to use shelfari should be adressed to that group please.
Authors are welcome to post, but please do not use this group to advertise for your book unless it caters to our interests!
Another small request from me......Please keep all discussions civil and try to respect other people's views and opinions while posting on this group.
If you decide to join...welcome!
Late Night Bookies 60 books / 77 members / 335 posts The Late Night Bookies is the book club that Optic Junkie and I started up about three years ago. We are located in the Rocky Mountain West in the United States--hot summers and bitter winters...but beautiful mountains and forests and wonderful people!


We called ourselves the Late Night Bookies--because we're pretty much late night people who love to read, our book clubs always go late, late into the evening...(read early morning hours)...and sometimes...if we start reading, we just can't stop until we've reached the end.


We've read a lot of books--had some book swaps, eaten some great food and had some good laughs along the way.


I wanted to share the books that we have read, as well as open up to discussion recommended books for future reading and ideas/recipes for continuing to enhance our book club experience.

I hope you enjoy the visit!

Movie Lovers 373 books / 1722 members / 9395 posts Welcome to Movie Lovers.

This is the place to come to discuss all genres of movies, old or new, viewed on the big screen or the little one, and not necessarily book-related...

Many book-lovers also share a passion for movies, as they also tell a "story" of one kind or another, and many movies are based on our favorite books.

All movie-lovers welcome to join discussions, or create your own.
Feel free to resurrect old (or ancient) discussions if you have something to add!

HAVE A HAPPY DAY :)

SWS 18 books / 41 members / 29 posts Students and staff in SWS love to read! This space is a private group for us to share what we're reading both in class and outside the classroom. Please send a note to me (the administrator) after you've joined Shelfari and are ready to join our group. Be sure to use your real name in your note so that I know who you are and will invite you to join!

Then, get going adding books to your own bookshelf, and putting them on the group shelf too. Adding a review lets us know what you thought of the book. You can do this in a discussion post too - and ask others for recommendations.

All school rules apply. Please don't use your real name, and do not post a photo of yourself. Of course, any inappropriate conduct and/or language won't be tolerated and may result in disciplinary action. Please write responses that follow the conventions of standard written English!

Happy reading!

Better than Starbucks… if you like good coffee, great books, sharp wit, and people who read 1621 books / 1959 members / 28530 posts Better than Starbucks… if you like good coffee, great books, sharp wit, and people who read
Shakespeare, Dickens, Twain, Marquez, Morrison, Joyce, Faulkner, Cather, Kingsolver and a few hundred other really delicious writers, not to impress strangers, but because they love a good read, then please join us.

We are not a private group, but the administrators will not resist the urge to delete boring and stupid comments. By the same token, personal attacks on young, slow or otherwise disadvantaged players will not be tolerated.

Generally, be nice to other members, but spare not public figures, pop lit superstars, big box stores, politicians and religious leaders. Focus more energy on what is good and even what is great, but feel free to throw a stone when the occasion calls for it.

To steal a phrase: we want to have serious intellectual discussions, but at the same time we want the heat to generate light, not fire....

Welcome!

The 100 Books Project: Inspiration Through Literary Exchange 38 books / 3 members / 0 posts The 100 Books Project's goal is to make the highest-quality English-language cultural production available to Arab children and adults in the Middle East. Beginning in Egypt, the project will stock donated books from a curated list in a series of Knowledge Cafes, which will lend their books on a free or low cost basis. The collections will be designed to inspire and inform readers even as they help build local English language literacy. The lists will be generated by donors who wish to share their favorite books and Arab readers who request specific books. Shipping to Egypt will be handled by the project. Please participate and let us know what books you would like to donate, what books you would like to read, and what books you would like to see included on this list of 100 books! A list of 50 additional childrens' books will be included for youth center collections. The first shipment to Egypt leaves May 14, 2008--so hurry in with your suggestions and donations! The first cafes will be in Cairo and Siwa, an Egyptian oasis. For more information as to where to send book donations or otherwise contribute, please check out www.100booksproject.org.

The Non Judgmental Book Club 33 books / 9 members / 4 posts We are a group in a small town in the north central part of Texas. We meet on the last Monday of the month. Members take turn choosing the books. The rules are simple: (1) Nobody is allowed to judge another member if they didn’t read (or finish) the book. (2) Books can have political or religious themes, but they should not be political or religions books. Example: Animal Farm = OK. How To Talk to a Liberal (If You Must) = not OK. There is a time and place for intense religious, theological and political discussions, but this club is not it! (3) The book should be somewhat of a classic or should have at least stood the test of time.
