Top threads this week

  1. Americans, could you suggest me a novel that best represents your state?

    Find me a book that is "very Delaware", "so Wyoming" or "totally Mississippi". A book where the attitutde, the mood, the sense and your experience of the state is best exemplified. Any genre is...

  2. Anything with a female protagonist that isn't about a victim, a child, relationships, sex or a domestic story?

    There must be something right?? I've spent all year reading books about women and am really starting to wonder otherwise. And I do mean protagonist here. I don't have a problem with any stories...

  3. Any book set in a world without misogony

  7. Books with ridiculously unique concepts?

  8. Genre fiction with female main character and NO love interest

    Any kind of genre is fine, I’m talking fantasy, sci-fi, western, mystery, (not romance obv.) ((unless you can make a compelling argument)), horror, etc. I’m tired of my female characters ending up...

  9. Book that connects 90s/Rush Limbaugh era to current political hellscape

    Post title says it all. I’m looking for a book that shows the throughline from the gross vitriolic 90s conservative talk radio era to the MAGA insanity of today.
