I have noticed we have several book recommendation threads.  Just thought I would ask if we have a comprehensive "main" thread somewhere, or if we have a recommended books on byzantium thread.Big%20smile

We do not have one thread yet.

I've been toying around with the idea for a little while now.  I think we have about 2-3 general 'recommend me' book threads and a maybe half dozen or more specified recommendation threads. 

Not to sure of how i would do this.  Maybe combine the 2-3 general threads and try to combine the fiction/nonfiction.  Or perhaps by era.   Or perhaps not do it at all, i haven't decided yet. 

I don't think we have a byzantine one yet though Shocked.  Correct me if i am wrong.

Shocked  Outrageous!Wink  You'll have to let me know if you do eventually make a main book thread in one form or another.

There is quite a few bookthreads in the Literary Pursuits forum. Although the idea of a single bookthread might sound practical, I doubt it is. After all, if you have just a single thread, you'd get posts on good informational books on Byzantium, historic novels in Victorian England and the latest fantasy series all mixed up... Wink

^^ You have a point but I guess we won't really know unless we try it.  Perhaps we will have to go with one thread per subject; on byzantium for instance.Cool
