**Rules:**

* Threads for the **book discussions** and the suggestions thread will be posted only by the mods. 

* **Short stories, poetry, and the like** may be submitted for discussion, but please check if it has already been submitted so we can avoid reposts. If it's a repost, don't be surprised if the submission gets removed.

* Links to articles about books, authors, reading, etc. are highly encouraged.

* Please tag submission titles as **[spoiler]** where applicable.

* To **hide spoilers in the comments**, use the following code:

 [Spoiler sentence](/spoiler)

 It should look like this: [Spoiler! Aaaahh!](/spoiler)

* Alternatively, you can also use the new reddit spoiler tag:

 >!Spoilers here!<



* **Don't downvote** because you disagree with the comment. Reserve your downvotes for comments that contribute nothing to the discussion.

* The downvote arrow for posts has been hidden. If there is a submission that is spam / irrelevant / malicious (you get the drift), please report the post.
