Really? Very little gets posted here these days.
And there is non-fiction and non-fiction.
This group has traditionally been primarily for the hard stuff,
computer junk, science, medical books, and technology.
It was created as a 'fuck-off' group.

Soft non-fiction, literary criticism, biographies,, history, etc.
has also been posted in the other books groups.
About fiction is also appropriate for the fiction book groups.
Nowadays, with this group being effectively locked up
even some of the hard stuff can be found elsewhere.
