HELLO BOOK SEEKERS!
Real quick update for everyone - we are slowly working on rebuilding the threads lost in this forum in the recent cyber attack. Two major threads were unforutnately lost in this attack - the Reading Goals thread, and the 2022 Book Seekers Reading Challenge.
For the reading goals, the mods have decided that we will start fresh in 2023 and create a new Reading Goals thread EVERY YEAR to help everyone track their reading progress a bit easier in the future.
The Book Seekers Reading Challenge IS being rebuilt and will be reposted shortly. We have old drafts of the challenge, it's just a matter of putting it all back together again! Once it is live simply remake your post in there and update your post accordingly

Omg! I just saw a preview to A Man called Otto, based on the book A Man called Ove. I can't wait to see this.

I saw the trailer for it yesterday and it was SO good, I absolutely cannot wait for it to come out! My husband is not a reader but A Man Called Ove spoke to him so much that for the first team in literal Y E A R S he read a book. I can't wait to take him to see the film! The fact it's Tom Hanks playing Otto too  | |

I know, I saw it yesterday as well! I think it comes out Christmas day, Tom Hanks is going to be so good at this role.

I know we lost our thread for Rebecca, but I just finished it and I'm sad we lost the BOTM thread because man I have thoughts! Is there another book after that because how do they end it like that without another book, please tell me there is another book?

I'm glad you ended up liking it and finishing it, because I like it so much! There isn't another book to follow up on Rebecca by the same author, but there are some books out there by OTHER authors who wrote their own sequel after the book entered public domain. I'd be interested in whether or not those are any good...

I'm curious lol You're able to make new threads for book discussions at any time! Any time you have a book you want to talk about, but you don't want to nominate it for BotM for any reason or in this case, the old one was deleted thanks to hackers lololol feel free to submit it!

I'm curious lol There IS a movie on Netflix that stars Armie Hammer and Lily James. I really liked it - gorgeous costumes and scenery - but it doesn't have an alternate ending, as far as I remember. So if you're looking for a different outcome, that won't make you happy.

Thank you for saying something. I hadn't even realized that my progress had been lost in the great darkness of the hack.
