    Welcome to Good Reads.

    We are glad you joined and want to encourage you to participate.

    Last month we read 11/22/63 by Stephen King. We're still discussing 11/22/63 and we've posted questions for this month's read, Room by Emma Donoghue. But,you should feel free to post to any of the book discussions, old or new. The books we have read are on our group shelf. If you rummage around a bit, you can find a discussion thread for each of them.

    We have also posted candidates for the February read, you can vote for your favorite through the 20th of the month.
