Hey Ron, What about a thread in the coffee corner for a book discussion. I have been reading a lot lately since I no longer have an income to pay for entertainment. Anyway, I have found a lot of fantastic books. We could call it "The Book Shelf" or something witty like that. Let me know what you think. |

i would suggest that for each book/thread, the opening post should have the title, the author, the publication year etc. also perhaps a link to amazon or cheapbooks.com or something like that where folks could check it out.

I just wanted to say that I think we should keep the library for all books, not seperate them into catagories. Someone might be looking through the library and find a book with a genre they might otherwise not find. A good example is, I never go to "big game" or "hunting" (yes, I DO know the purpose of this forum), but I will read the book reviews and I might expand my horizons from the review, or at the very least find something that would be a great present for someone else who does have a hunting interest. Also, for the cookbooks, I think it would be great to post an overall review with a link where to purchase in the library, but save specific recipies for the cooking corner. For the very reasons listed above. Just my opinion. What do you guys think? |

Works fo me also. Maybe making the ttopic the book title would help people search for what they want or see books they already read. I thought keeping the first paragraph having only: Rating: **** (one to four stars) Title, Author, Publisher and amazon or other purchase link. Followed by paragraph (s) on your revciew . Just my thoughts |

I thought we sorta had a book topic a bit ago, unofficial of course....Tas, maybe you could find it and use it for a sort of startup of idea......it was just some of us telling of good books etc. I mean maybe bring that topic stuff over to the new site Library.......just for openers......

Another idea I had is to have a "discussion" once a month about a particular book. For example, "Cheesy movies of the early 1980's". Hhhmmm... I could WRITE that book, I've seen them all! Anyway, every month, someone different picks a title, everyone reads the book, and then a specific day, say the fourth thursday, the person who selected the book opens the discussion. Just so you guys are clear, I am using you as my social life since I don't have one. Mr. Chikee is gone all the time driving train, and well, I have a four-year old! |

I think let ALL books run here.....each will be a new topic and the title may give a clue to books subject or make that a must for the subject line of a new topic. Anyway, if we can tell from the subject line we can choose which book reviews might interest us that way. I don't know how many charactors are allowed in the subject line. SUBJECT LINE ie: MILITARY First word = Subject First line in the post = "AMERICAN SOLDIER"-by GEN. TOMMY FRANKS 1st word(s) = Book title 2nd word(s) = Author Then go on to the reivew etc Just the view from my bookcase..... |
