Okay, so I'm imagining a three-tier system here.

The "read" shelf includes any books passed without debate onto The Subversives-approved BOGFMLA-sanctioned reading list. For the sake of making us not look like petty squabblers, I have included all of the books currently listed on the "Subversive Books" thread in this category.

If anyone has specific objection to a book on the list right now, give a holler and we can move it to the currently being read section. That way, we can all read it and pettily squabble.

(I'm not sure if I as Moderator and Pope am the only one allowed to to do this or what-not...if that is the case, we'll need to agree on some kind of system of voting or blackballing to move stuff from read to currently reading)

Books that are under debate, in the currently reading shelf. I guess for the sake of not cluttering up the argument about whether the Boson Higgs particle exists or is simply a conspiracy of mayonnaise magnates, each book under debate should probably get it's own thread, wherein participants are encouraged to be well-mannered about their petty squabbling.

Books that individual members have read and no one else seems to know anything about can go in the "to be read" shelf.

After paragraphs of obfuscation, I'll add some bullet points:

Read:
We like-it like it, but we're not sure how it feels about us.

Reading:
We know it, but we're not sure if we like it
(possibly because of the huge zit on its nose and its snide demeanor).

To Be Read:
We don't know about it. As a matter of fact, it kind of scares us.
