I'm a college student and I love to read poems and prose outside of the world of textbooks.
I tend to read more than one book at a time. If I am focused on reading just one book, that's a good sign. more »

    Welcome to 1001 books. You can keep track of the books you have read from the book, 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die, join in the discussions on the books we are reading for the month (BOTM) or you can debate the merits of the list as some enjoy doing. We hope you will want to join in the choosing of BOTM and the discussions. The current books are pinned to the top for that month. There are older discussions that can be found by searching discussions. If there is any way the group administrator can help further feel free to ask one of us. If you don’t own the book the list can be found at the top in the group description or at http://www.listology.com/content_show.cfm?content_id=22845. A downloadable list of the second edition is available at http://johnandsheena.co.uk/books/?page_id=160.

    I'd like to read that if you don't mind loaning it. I like Joyce Carol Oates in small doses. I'd be curious to see if her adolescent title is as dark as her adult fiction. What are you reading now?

    Hey, Laura, how was Big Mouth? I love Joyce Carol Oates' fiction, but usually only read one per year, as it's so, so dark. Is this one adolescent fiction?

    I see you are new around here, you might enjoy Better than Starbucks
    http://www.shelfari.com/groups/23648/about

    Better than Starbucks is one of the fastest growing literary/social groups on Shelfari, with good reason. the membership (not so much me, the founder) is literate and diverse, and by and large very intelligent. The name of the group comes from an argument that led to the founding.

    You can check out the following thread to understand a bit the naming:
