I joined because (surprise, surprise) I like books

Unread post

Hello, I am a denizen of the UK. Many of the people I am around to not like talking about books that I enjoy (I am mostly a non-fiction and classic literature/philosophy reader) so I thought it would be a good idea to find a forum where I could talk with others about all sorts of books. This forum seems to have a nice community, so here I am. I also noticed that there are a lot of atheists on this forum, which I found to be a pleasant surprise (I am also an atheist (like the majority of my country (99% of the christians here are cultural christians only anyway))). So there's 2 grounds on which I can talk to people here. I hope to see you all around.

Well most of us here like books, or we would not be here. :lol: Everyone has his/her list of likes dislikes in books; that is what makes life interesting. :hmm: Looking forward to some good discussions with you, but for now, I will just say

Hi and welcome to the group :-)

Hello! Welcome! Don't we all like books? Lol anyway, my favorite books are the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. The perfect mix of action, comedy, romance, and sexiness. ;)
