BOOKD discussion

Hey everyone! Please use this thread to say hello, let the THNKR team know about what you hope to get out of this group, and share with the club your favorite authors and books.


We'll start... Hi, I'm Julia! I'm one of the producers on THNKR, and the moderator of these forums! My favorite authors include Zadie Smith, Ray Bradbury, and Philip Roth. My favorite books recently include Something Wicked This Way Comes, Hyperion, and Roger Ebert's memoir Life Itself.

Hey! I'm Kelsi, the THNKR Production Assistant. Despite my lifelong obsession with fiction writing, I am a terribly slow reader and tend to fall asleep on a pile of half read books. Currently occupying my bed: Bossypants by Tina Fey, Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell, Train Dreams by Denis Johnson, and more than a few collections of poetry. Excited to be here!

Hi everyone, what's up? I'm Jim, one of the other producers on THNKR. I spend most of my time on BOOKD, so if you have any feedback on the show, whether recommendations, compliments or blistering criticisms, you can let me have it! My favorite books include Into the Wild, Matterhorn, and The War For Late Night. Anything written about tv/film, I tend to consume like crack. Too much info? Let us know what you like!

Howdy y'all, I'm Dan Scharch and I'm a big fan of THNKR. When I saw the chance to be more connected using Goodreads I jumped at it. Likewise, my interest in alternative thinking permeates my reading material, including Tim Ferriss' Four Hour series, Dale Carnegie classics, and I'm currently reading The Lucifer Effect. I'm also down with hard-boiled detective novels and stand-up comedians. Let's hope this will make me more active on Goodreads!
