Frequently Asked Questions

Whatever happened to the old discussion forums?

The purpose of the old discussion forums was for all members to discuss various books. The new PBC website still allows (old and new) members to do the same things but with a twist.

Instead of creating a new topic thread, you can create a book review, which actually has more features than the old one. When creating a book review, you can provide more details about the book you've selected (including book cover image, publishers, number of pages, etc). You can also provide a synopsis and your own review.

Other members can, then, share their thoughts and personal reviews by adding new comments. Thus, the new website is now more organized than the old one.
