 Happy 10th Birthday BookTalk.org!
May 5, 2012 marks BookTalk.org's 10th year on the web!

Thank you to each and every one of you who have helped make BookTalk.org what it is today. And by "what it is today" I mean the very best place online to discuss quality books with good people from around the world. I really appreciate each and every one of you!

We'll soon be launching the new upgraded site but a few more weeks are needed to finish some of the features and pages. Hang in there and you'll soon see our new site automatically replacing the current site. The forums will not be changing with this first phase of the upgrade. They're next!
