I am sorry but I do not see a way to post questions sequentially, rather than posting them as per the way that this website has allowed to.
It allows you to pose your questions in an existing thread, and wait until one topic has been answered and discussed before posing the next question in the same thread.
This book is not very much more engaging than the wilderness crying one; neither deserves to take up half the active topics.
I see your point.

I think that the problem here is that the active topics are being shown together, regardless of their main category. If the option was available to select the categories of topics that you are willing to discuss, then only the active topics out of chosen categories will be shown, even many other irrelevant topics are much more active. I think the moderators will see this comment and consider that suggestion.

I am not sure whether we can put one topic and wait till it is fully discussed to go for another topic as this is a forum which discusses new books each month. So we have to quickly move on through one book, and that means through several topics.

I think we've moved through this one like a dose of salts.

:D Yeah, I think so. Since we have finished discussing that, we can carry on with the rest of the topics. Thank you for your valuable participation.
