| Name: | Book Addicts |
| Website: | Copious Info. |
| Location: | United States | | About: | This community was created in order to provide a place for open discussion about stimulating books.
What's stimulating? Obviously, this is different for different people. Here is a brief description of what is meant by this term in the context of this community: If it made you think, post about it. If it pissed you off, post about it. If you loved it, hated it, cried, were disgusted, overjoyed, post about it.
What's not stimulating? Harlequin Romance/ Fantasy, horror, or Sci-fi series where one author has written more than 100 books. Also, comments such as, "This book was good. The end," or "This book sucked. The end." If the book evoked enough of a response from you to make you want to get online and post about it, surely it deserves more than a few words. The End.
The Rules:
1) Don't Advertise - There are communities specifically for that purpose, such as  community_ads, go there. Your posts should be about books that you've read, want to read, etc. ADS WILL BE ERASED.
2) See rule #1. (In light of the fact that rules suck, they will be added only as problems arise. Until then, post away book fiends!)
And just for the hell of it, here are some nifty links to super-keen authors/books/info. -
