[close] We're here because we like reading and we like chatting about reading. But we are here especially because we strongly believe that reading is not just something we do alone, but something that can unite people of different kinds, all over the world! This group really is all about books! In terms of group reads we have a monthly fiction book and a bi-monthly group read of a classic. Quarterly there is a group discussion of a play, a seasonal author for poetry and fiction as well as a non-fiction - theme. We also have weekly poetry postings (the Monday Poem). We feature a yearly challenge and theme challenges in which members are encouraged to read books that relate to a specific theme, and dedicated sections for non-fiction, poetry and drama. In addition, we have sections for people to post their yearly personal challenges and their 2016 reads. --------------------------------------------- July - September 2016 Our Seasonal Poet: poets from Latin America Focus: Gabriela Mistral Our Summer Theme for Plays: Plays by Nobel Laureates Focus Play: The Lion and the Jewel by Wole Soyinka Seasonal Author: Haruki Murakami
