I've never been in a reading group, I'd give it a shot

[–] Honk@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

That might be fun. I've been wanting to reread it for a little while now.

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Yes. I struggle with finding new books I can get into lately.

I read The Left Hand of Darkness a long time ago. I loved it. I’d read it again.

Sounds like a cool idea, I literally just finished rereading The Left Hand of Darkness yesterday though.

I'd be interested. I've been reading consistently again.

I would tell that!I think I've got the book but never read it.

I'm down. I recently read The Dispossessed and have been wanting to read some of Ursula's other works.
