Chronic Illness

[close] A book group hosted by the Spondylitis Association of America. The books in this group are books that will discuss experiences with AS, chronic pain, chronic illness and managing health care appointments, as well as fiction about people with AS. The books listed in the bookshelf are placed here by people in this group to encourage open dialogue. SAA, therefore, has not vetted, recommended or endorsed these selections. It is the first AS group of its kind on GoodReads, and we hope you enjoy it.

[close] This group is a book club and community for Disabled and Chronically Ill readers. Here we can discuss disability and chronic illness representation in literature and related media and connect with other disabled and chronically ill book-lovers. We will also choose a book to read and discuss as a group every month and a half (schedule below). All kinds of disabilities and chronic illnesses are welcome. We want this to be a safe and supportive community space for anyone looking to connect with fellow disabled/chronically ill book-lovers! If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to one of the group moderators.

[close] We will each take turns picking a book to read and leading a discussion. Don't worry about what people like or don't like...it's fun to try out new genres. There is a separate post to sign up for to pick and admin the books. We will do 1 per month, so we don't get overwhelmed. We will try and pick books that are available on Scribd (audio and digital books); if you want to check Scribd out, click on this link to get the service for 2 months free. https://www.scribd.com/g/72yo38
