Post Apocalyptic

[close] NOMINATIONS ARE CLOSED. THANKS TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED!! We're a group building a reliable bookshelf-database of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror books that do NOT mention sexual violence or dubious sexual consent. We're inspired by Sarah Gailey's essay urging authors to "Do Better" https://www.tor.com/2016/08/22/do-better-sexual-violence-in-sff/ Join our long term project by sharing your recent reads in our monthly chat. Once a month we update the bookshelf database but recommendations are welcome everyday of the year!

[close] A book club for those of us who enjoy the Post-Apocalyptic/Dystopian genre. Each month there will be a poll so we can find out what our next book will be. Create a new post and let everyone know in the title what it is you'd like to discuss (without any spoilers please!) How to hide spoilers: Placed and before and after the content you want to hide (without the spaces, of course). Another way to "hide" spoilers is to start a discussion letting everyone know in the title if your topic. (Example: "1984 - Chapter 1 - Had a question about Goldstein") That way if someone hasn't started the book or finished Chapter 1 they'll know that there may be spoilers in the discussion and can join in later. Polls and Bookshelf can be found here: POLLS BOOKSHELF Also if haven't already, please visit r/dystopianbooks on reddit (created by our own member SandHouse) for everything dystopian! http://www.reddit.com/r/dystopianbooks/
