If you'd like to share favorite books - fiction or non-fiction - and their appeal, whether or not you're one of society's under-appreciated two percent who can boast recessive allele on chromosome 16 and the resultant different take on the MC1R protein 🙂

I just finished Borne by Jeff Vandermeer and now I am reading the first book in his Southern Reach Trilogy. I am not a big sci fi person, but I do enjoy a good post apocalyptic dystopian novel. Has anyone else read his work?

Any science fiction fans here? My all-time favorite book, of ANY catagory, is DUNE, by Frank Herbert, but lately I've been reading the Galaxy's Edge series, by Jason Anspach and Nick Cole. If you like military sci-fi, it's a very entertaining series.

I’m just starting Haruki Murakami’s 1Q84. Has anyone else read it and did you enjoy it?

Is anyone else on Goodreads? I keep all my read and to-read titles there and would love to compare notes. Will send a link to my profile to anyone who's interested in connecting.

Any Dan Brown fans? Are you expecting another addition to the Robert Langdon series? Or will Origin be the last one?

A favorite book of mine, and one that I've read more than once over the years is Kurt Vonnegut's 'Slaughterhouse Five or The Children's Crusade: A Duty-Dance with Death', his beautifully honed reminiscence of surviving the 1945 Allied firebombing of ...

Anyone really into reading apocalyptic fiction right now? Do you have any favorites or recommendations? I'm always looking for more book ideas. I just finished this for the 2nd time and love the absurd craziness.

I've always loved The Phantom Toll Booth and now my daughter does too. Does anyone remember the movie? I saw that before reading the book.

This is not a book recommendation but rather a story of getting back to Jane Austin. Recently I picked up a novel "Undressing Mr. Darcy" I thought it might be a fun read and the name of the book peeked my interest. Well, the book was even worse ...

Anyone have a favorite antidote book? Something that bucks you up when you're feeling nasty? I love the novels of PG Wodehouse, Tom Sharpe and the essays of Dave Barry. Anyone else have suggestions?

I recently re-read a book by John Green called "The Fault of the Stars", which is about some kids who all have cancer. It is surprisingly entertaining and not relly a downer kind of read, but fun and a little adventurous.

Let me put this out there... is the bible, at least the King James version, worth reading simply for its language? I find such turns of phrase as "and darkness was upon the face of the deep" almost poetic in their expression...

Don't take this as a criticism, but not every voracious reader likes to feel quizzed (I had to Google the MC1R thing, never having had red hair or even known anyone with red hair). But if you want a very tiny book group, sure, go ahead. I read so ...
