Default Would there be any interest in... - 25-10-2006, 11:01

...having a books sub-forum in the General Discussion.

I'm sure there are a number of avid readers out there who'dlike to be recommended novels by authors they've never considered reading.

It's plausible but is it feasible?

People on this site read?!!!

I'd welcome that, but only if it was called "Literature" dahling.

Would be good to recommend crime thrillers to everyone and have them recommend proper books back to me!

Literature would also include magazines of the top-shelf variety.

Imagine discussing Forum in a Forum

Bollocks! I've just given away the closely kept secret that is my magazine subscription

It would be full of posts about books like "the curious incident of the dog in the night" or the davinci code probably. Still, sounds like a good idea.

Sub-sub-forum?
"titerature & cliterature"?



At least the idea hasn't descended into farce already!

I'm happy to give it a go. If it doesn't work out then I can always get rid of it. Anyone else keen on this?

Fucking latte-sipping beatnik.

On topic, I like the idea, being an avid reader. I'll happily recommend obscure Marxist classics.
