- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I started reading 'The Country of the Pointed Firs' by Sarah Orne Jewett. And I love it.
I never heard of that author before, only opening this book because an author whose work I appreciate a lot said his own appreciation for her. So far, I only had time to read the first four chapters but I think I can safely say I was already hooked after the first few paragraphs.
BTW, the book and a few others of hers are freely available on the Project Gutenberg, if you don't mind reading ebooks: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/202
