All that time spent talking about reading could be spent reading.

Mood's never been better, it's just that the thought of a bunch of people sitting around jawing about a book is bizarre. Reading's a personal thing, keep it to yourself.

i don't understand what you could have against other people sharing their views on a book, what is it about reading that's so inherently personal compared to watching films or listening to music? fair enough if you find reading a personal experience and don't want to share your thoughts, but if that's the case i'm not sure a book forum is the place for you.

it's more like everyone reads the same book and then discusses it, but maybe you could start a new thread for folks who want to swap books

Who would pick what books to read though ? If its just one person then their taste is likely to be directed along one genre (most of the time anyway) and everyone has a different taste in books.

Would we vote? Or take turns to pick? You might want to decide that before hand so there are no arguements later.
