Default Michael, Book Review/Club Section?

I've noticed by going backwards through some sections and threads, that there are a lot of great book reviews, suggestions and discussions on here. Some are just randomly dropped into a thread relating to the topics, and some are actual threads started for a book in particular.


I am wondering if anyone else thinks that a section specifically for books would be appealing to anyone on here? There are a few books I just read about in the threads, some were my own suggestions some were others, but it's nice to see the discussions about them.

I would like this- Adult, kids or schooling or all books? I like the idea of an all books sticky.
I am looking for a light reading book for the summer- nothing heavy and easy reading. For myself. I tend to like true stories

OK, I've been thinking about removing the Products catgorey. This may be a good one to replace it.

Thank you- I will give this one a try. I know I asked a while back, and then I got busy and never looked or went forward with finding a book. My heart is there, my motivation- it needs a push. I did write the name down and will try to find this.

I started taking my kids to the library again (now that they are older and can find books on their own). I find I have no time during the day to read, but somehow, I seem to be reading alot!

For my birthday I got a sony e-reader the newest one. It's pretty cool! I can do facebook and everything on it! hahaha. But right now I'm big into the self-help books (I go through phases with genre's or whatever you would call them).

If I am going to read a novel, I am very much like you, I prefer true stories, true crime, etc. I've read some freaky books!

Two that I remember most are House of Secrets (Eddie Lee Sexton book) and Lethal Marriage (Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka book)

I must have missed it. I usually come into the general forum and I forget about all the others--- just the way I have it bookmarked.

Michael did you take it down or did I not see it?

It should be up. Maybe I have it set for members only. Let me change that. (update) I just checked and it is public. Maybe your browser is holding on to the old cache. Try clearing it. I DID remove the Products section.
