Magical Realism

[close] Books & Musings is a small reading group for those who enjoy bouncing around all genres with a pull toward fiction. The intent is to keep the reading focused on a slightly more positive subject matter (think less true crime, murder, thriller, and violence, with more focus on finding those light(er)-hearted, thought-provoking, semi-upbeat, leaning toward feel-good reads that still bring a bit of curiosity and mystery within the storylines. As a group, we want to open up our individual tastes in books and grow our interest through recommendations we may not have chosen on our own. Book suggestions are welcome and encouraged! We will try to focus on one book per month based on suggestions from members and everyone will be encouraged to read at their own pace throughout the month, but asked to be mindful of spoilers when sharing discussions and quotes they enjoy. Above all, I want us to read new books, have genuinely interested people to discuss our reads with, and have fun doing it!

[close] This group is fun way for those participating in the Marshall Public Library's annual adult reading challenge to track their reading and share book ideas with others.

[close] This global discussion group has been designed to encourage debates about important and underreported issues of our era. All you need is an enquiring mind and a desire to gain or share “underground knowledge”. This is also a place to discuss the controversial topics explored in The Underground Knowledge Series (non-fiction books) by James Morcan & Lance Morcan as well as the Underground Knowledge podcast show.

[close] A book club/discussion group for those interested in literary and contemporary fiction, including short stories, novellas, flash fiction, and novels. The aim is to share which books you're reading, make suggestions, share notes, and more! Great group to join if you have specific interests in magical realism, autofiction, genre-bending fiction, speculative fiction, and the beautifully grotesque. Usually won't be discussing YA fiction, sci-fi, or other subgenre fiction (nothing against them), just have my preferences and would like some people to discuss them with.
