    Welcome to the group based on the book 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die.
    There is a general explanation of the group under the discussion thread GROUP GUIDELINES.
    The books of the month (BOTM) that the group is reading are pinned to the top. May BOTM are;
    1. Choke by Palahniuk, Chuck
    2. Dr. Zhivago by Boris Pasternak
    3. Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake
    4. Works of Poe
    We are also starting something new. It will be a Long Read consisting of books from the list that are greater than a 1000 pages. The group will be starting with War and Peace by Tolstoy.
    Hope you can join in one or all the discussions.
