Between the Lines discussion

I'm personally not into the classic. I like to read fiction. I hope this group does not focus on classic novels.

Sounds good Fiona!

I like the idea of variety. Thanks for the new ideas!

I've said this in another group...historic fiction and cultural fiction can be closely tied together, yet there can be a huge distinction between the two. For instance, The Whiskey Rebels is historic fiction, without a doubt. OTOH, Memoirs of a Geisha is definitely more about culture, even though it has some historic overtones.

How come the group reads have not been renewed?

I also noticed that Emilee was not listed as an moderator any longer. I miss her already.

Your ideas sound good. I like the option of doing group reads within themes or topics.

Today is June 30. Are there plans for July?????

Fiona and I need to talk again.

What's happened to the group? No monthly books to read, no polls siince May, looks like its quietly fading away. Time for a kick up the backside indeed. When you get round to it.

I have recently joined some new groups and unjoined some of my less interesting ones. I am (somewhat) patiently waiting to see if this one becomes one of the interesting ones. :-)

I'm also waiting to see if they start the monthly book reads again.

Perhaps our mods are really busy or distracted by their IRL lives right now.

So let's vote on our own. We can do that. Create a new topic where we can make selections ono our own?

You should renew the what book are you reading/finished posts, or any that have over 1000 messages.

Oh no!! Why was the name changed?

Probably has something to do with the other changes. I like the new name better. :-)

Yep, kind of like a facelift!

I really like the name change Beth and Fiona.

Thank you, Kathy!

Along with your refurbishment, I am going to try and be more active in the group, too. Even great mods can't do it all.

That's great to hear, Kathy. More active participation is exactly what we'd like to see!
