FFA DW Post #2340 - Law & Order: Special Vogons Unit

In the galactic justice system, poetry-based offenses are considered especially heinous. In the Milky Way Quadrant, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Vogons Unit. These are their stories.

thestoryinside

If you're anything like us, you'll no doubt have a mountain of books that you just never get around to reading. Well, that's where

thestoryinside comes in - have someone choose your book for you!

The process is simple: join the community, and each month sign up to be partnered with a buddy, who will then choose a book from your 'to read' list. At the end of each month there will be a community post to discuss your thoughts on the book(s) you read!

However, we're putting a twist on the traditional 'pick for me' routine and each month we'll vote on what genre of book we'll be reading; now, of course this is open to personal interpretation, for example, if the genre is horror and you're not a big fan, you could go for a Goosebumps book, or even Twilight. There will be an opportunity in each voting post to ask any questions you might have.
