[close] A group for psychological thriller readers in the Madison, WI area. We meet once a month, usually on Saturday mornings, at various locations. All are welcome! See our facebook group for more details.

"It's like a cross between ____ and ____ with a little Harry Potter thrown in." "YOU'VE NEVER READ ____?!?" You know the drill. Your friends reference it, your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/"sort of thing?" raves about it, even your favorite movies quote it, or it IS your favorite movie but you've never read the book. This group is for those of us for whom one of the following may apply... - we have finally developed a taste for reading and are severely behind on classics; - we kindaaa, sortaaa, but actually slept through English class in high school and used Sparknotes/Hollywood remakes to write our book reports; - we buy a book that everyone is talking about and it sits on our shelf, and sits there... and sits there; - we've heard the hype and are finally getting around to reading the actual book; - we want to expand our horizons beyond the single genre we usually read and want to do so with some time-tested material; - we just plain old want to get everyone off our backs for not having read _____. Every month we'll choose three books to read: 1) a classic (that everyone has probably read but us), 2) a "modern" classic or popular book that everyone is talking about, and 3) a bookshelf catch-up in which we choose a book the group has already read to catch-up with other members.

[close] Welcome! We are a reading group focused on challenge-based activities, hosting seasonal challenges that revolve around specific themes. By engaging in these challenges, you can earn Badges. While they're just for fun, our readers enjoy collecting them as a way to showcase their reading achievements. Feel free to join as many or as few challenges as you wish. Our current theme is AMMP Your Appetite for Reading! Foodies are going to love this one...lots of Yummy challenges for us all! “Elrond's house was perfect, whether you liked food or sleep or story-telling or singing (or reading), or just sitting and thinking best, or a pleasant mixture of them all. Merely to be there was a cure for weariness. ... Evil things did not come into the secret valley of Rivendell.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien
