I'm more interested in how this would be enforced A Deathwatch Guard Send a noteboard - 27/01/2012 02:39:15 AM
And what would happen to those that fail to comply. Either way, I don't see it as being any more effective than a recommendation. The people that are interested in reading will look at it with interest and read what they want from there, and the people not into reading will go on ignoring literature. Not to mention that I'd be worried about a list of books being given by the government anyway. Not the sort of people I would trust to choose the best quality books.

Considering his first 20... Larry - 26/01/2012 09:30:10 PM 860 Views
Oh, nevermind, I'd overlooked his plays there on the 16th position. Ignore what I said. Legolas - 26/01/2012 09:42:03 PM 847 Views
You were absolutely 100% correct, though. Tom - 26/01/2012 11:29:50 PM 774 Views
It was more in chronological order, rather than in terms of quality Tom - 26/01/2012 11:35:10 PM 2745 Views

Zamyatin? *NM* rebelaessedai - 30/01/2012 10:17:29 AM 394 Views
What did you want to ask about Zamyatin? *NM* Tom - 31/01/2012 08:38:31 PM 370 Views
I suspect she, like me, read a little too fast and wrongly thought she'd found an omission. *NM* Legolas - 02/02/2012 06:42:22 PM 386 Views
