Hello readers, and welcome to our weekly thread for images, videos, and gifs related to books. If you want to share an interesting youtube video you found, a picture of your bookshelf that you just reorganized, or a gif with books in it but don't have a thought provoking question or opinion to share along with it, you can post it here.

Note: the rule about self promotion still applies, so while you are welcome to share a video you saw and loved on youtube, please don't spam with your own channel.

Also, if you like what you see on this thread, be sure to check out book-related, image-oriented subs like /r/bookcaseporn[1] , /r/bookhaul[2] , /r/bookshelf[3] , /r/discworldtattoos[4] or /r/literaturevideos[5] throughout the week.

Welcome to our weekly recommendation thread! The mod team has decided to condense the many "suggest some books" threads posted every week into one big mega-thread, in the interest of organization. Our hope is that this will consolidate our subreddit a little. We have been seeing a lot of posts making it to the front page that are strictly suggestion threads, and hopefully by doing this we will diversify the front page a little. We will be removing suggestion threads from now on and directing their posters to this thread instead. Let's jump right in, shall we?

The Rules

1. Every comment in reply to this self-post must be a request for suggestions.

2. All suggestions made in this thread must be direct replies to other people's requests. Do not post suggestions in reply to this self-post.

3. All un-related comments will be deleted in the interest of cleanliness.

All Weekly Recommendation Threads will be linked below the header throughout the week. Hopefully that will guarantee that this thread remains active day-to-day. Be sure to sort by "new" if you are bursting with books that you are hungry to suggest.

If this thread has not slaked your desire for tasty book suggestions, we propose that you head on over to the aptly named subreddit /r/suggestmeabook.

Karibu readers, to our monthly discussion of the literature of the world!  Twice a month, we'll post a new country for you to recommend literature from with the caveat that it must have been written by someone from that country (i.e. Shogun by James Clavell is a great book but wouldn't be included in Japanese literature). 

In honor of Zanzibar Revolution Day, this week's country is Tanzania! Please use this thread to discuss Tanzanian literature and authors.

Hello readers and welcome to our Weekly FAQ thread! Our topic this week is: How do I get through an uninteresting book? Sometimes we want to read something because we're "supposed to" and want to say that we did. Or, it's something that needs to be read for a school assignment. Either way, how do you get through books you find uninteresting?

Thank you and enjoy!
