GFY Book Club

Seems like a nice way to get some threads not purely about "would you hit it" and stuff like that on GFY every once in a while.

Basically, every month a bunch of people from GFY could decide on a book to read and discuss it in a thread at the end of the month.
I know for a fact that some of you could use all the culture you can get, and it could be a good way to find stuff you'd otherwise never read.

Anyone up for it?


PS. I haven't slept all night and just came back from running a few miles, so if this a particularly weird idea, don't blame me, blame the lack of sleep

anything with pop ups or an interactive story where you decide the ending would probably do okay.

Who needs the majority? There are so many people on GFY that even a minority could very well have enough people to make this interesting.

Besides, think of the cognitive dissonance this will cause with law enforcement officers and such who are monitoring GFY

Nice idea.. but maybe not for the masses at GFY.

Count me in though if you do organize something.

One of the most interesting things of stuff like this is that you get to read stuff you might otherwise have never read at all.

If you *really* don't like the book, though, nobody is forcing you to read it and post about it. Hell, you can even stick with reading what others say about it and then pretending you read it to friends


By the way, I think you just passed 10k posts without noticing

Intensity from Dean Koontz is an amazing book that is very hard to put down. I suggest it to anyone that likes a good scary mystery

Also.. Devils Knot ... I can not remember who wrote this but It is a true story and a very good book. You will be amazed at the events that actually happened..

Have a great night :-)

I read probably 2 books a week minimum. I can't usually fall asleep until I've read for an hour or so to unwind.

I need to start reading again. After not reading books and reading so many mispelled words on this board... I could really use some culture.

Probably just mixed literature. A vote would probably be a good way to decide what to read.

I'd probably be up for it. Then I'll feel like I didn't waste the dough on that comparative literatures degree.

So far, it looks like quite a few people are interested. I think the adult industry is about to witness the birth of it's very own book club

I'd prefer to read nonfiction, but fiction's probably less controversial.

I don't really think a lot of organization would have to be involved... Just nominate and vote for books every month, decide on a day to discuss them, and discuss the books in a somewhat orderly manner in one or several threads on GFY.

I'd be willing to participate, as long as we stick to non-fiction. Basically anything related to business and self-improvement interests me. We could start with Dale Carnegie's classic How to Win Friends and Influence People, which should be the bible of anyone in business.
