Books in the NPF Community
I was having a few ideas and I was wondering if anyone else would be interested in them to help give me some momentum.
One idea was a Book PM list. It would consist of a long list of good books recently read by members of the NPF. I was thinking something like this Title: XXXXXXXXXXXX Fiction: -Eragon by Christopher Paolini: Insert Review here -Packman. -The Three Musketeers: Insert Review here -Packman. Science Fiction: -Book 1 by author A: Review -NPF member X. -Book 2 by author B: Review -NPF member Y. Enter generic category here: Lather, rinse, repeat! Then when you recieve the PM you add a book or two of your own and send it back to the person you got it from as well as to everyone else on the list. ------ Another idea was a book of the month club. Where we decide to pick a new book read it and one month later discuss what we thought of it. Like Thread Title: Book of April We read XXXX last month I think ................... Next month we are reading XXXXX by xxxxxx. next person posts. etc etc End Post. --------------------------------------------------------- Personal Request feel free to ignore I for one read a hellofa lot. For my english class I figured something insane which is like over 500,000 pages in 4 months. I DEVOUR them! (next paragraph is just braggin... you can skip it) I went through almost 100 books since last year, the shortest of which was 250 pages. I also went thought the entire NPF archives and several thousand posts (including the ~1k in the all purpose poetry thread my last one was 9/11). The entire Alt+Cntrl+Del Archives and the Chugworth Academy Archives as well as about 4 other FF webcomic archives. Now the problem is the vast majority of the books I read are nonfiction. I was wondering if I could get some good fiction books that I havent read. The last one I thouroughly enjoyed was "The Stranger." I also went thought every book Tolkien wrote and Eragon. What I really need is a good novel something that will get the imagination working. I'd love any suggestions, but please include somekind of information on whats in the book. Thanks!!
