I joined because (surprise, surprise) I like books
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.

Welcome, we could use some more non-fiction readers to get involved in our discussions. Feel free to jump right in.

Well most of us here like books, or we would not be here. Everyone has his/her list of likes dislikes in books; that is what makes life interesting. Looking forward to some good discussions with you, but for now, I will just say
Love what you do, and do what you love. Don't listen to anyone else who tells you not to do it. -Ray Bradbury
Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. -Robert A. Heinlein

Hi and welcome to the group
"Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs.

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.
