| About: | About the Community![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif){kind=small} apathy_books is a forum for posting book reviews on... pretty much anything that has words in. Fiction, genre fiction, cookbooks, gardening, dictionaries, literature, graphic novels - so long as it's made out of a stack of flat surfaces bound along one edge, it's fair game.(And we may even be flexible about that.) The idea behind this works two ways - not only does it give you a place to post reviews of things you've read, we'll try to make the posts easy to find and look through so that you can easily find something that you might want to read (or use, or flip through, or... you get the idea). The RulesAs far as rules go, we'd rather like not to have many of them. In general, be civil about things. Discussion is good, but do remember that if you disagree violently you're always free to make another post about the item in question. Having multiple reviews of the same item is fine, and a range of opinions can be a Good Thing. Try to keep it within reason, though: Deathly Hallows, for example, doesn't need fifty thousand posts in this community. And the rest is pretty much commonsense - put the main body of the post behind a cut, add a warning if there's spoilers in the posts, and so forth. Post TemplateWhen posting, we also ask that you use this template, to make your posts easy for other people to find, and easy for us to tag. Compulsory information Author(s): Just like it says. Title: Title : subtitle. Written as on title page. Series: The series, a subseries if there is one, and the number within the series (or subseries). Genre/subject: The genre, or the subject, or the subjects. For some fiction, setting (Terre d'Ange, Middle-Earth, wherever) will count as a subject. Non-fiction about fiction has the fiction as a subject (ie, the Firefly Visual Companion is about Firefly). Biography has a person for a subject. Rating: A number from 0-10. Optional information Publisher: Publisher, year. Usually on the back of the title page. Extent: The number of volumes if there's more than one, and the number on the last page. Illustration: Basic information: maps, diagrams, photos, portraits, etc. - specifics go in review text. ISBN: ISBN-10, ISBN-13 if there is one (it's the 13-digit number under the barcode), because we love our bookseller friends. Notes: Short, concise notes on important details not listed above - again, specifics in text. You can copy it from here: | ||
