Hey there,

I had this idea a long time ago, but it never worked out like I imagined. But it's worth a try.
One chapter per week, discuss with others, next chapter and so on. (Or, if the chapters are very short, a specific amount of pages.) Not the whole book at once, but little chats about your view on it.
It's just that I don't like to review the book at once, but I would like to talk about characters and events.
This is a poor explanation...

Does anyone have an opinion on this? I am open for ideas.

The poll is for possible books for #Round 1. :mcwink: Maybe to start in may?

Thank you in advance for answering. :mcheh:

And book recs are welcome too!

SPOILER There will be discussion about all kind of things from books. You are warned. There are SPOILER!


#1 - The silence of the lambs
Discussion starts here

#2 - ??? See Poll

Kind of like an online book club, that's cool. It's been a while since I cracked open a book though, but this still sounds like a lot of fun. Will a decision be made a bout a week in advance before May on the book? Or is all that up in the air at the moment?

The poll lasts 27 days, but I think it is okay to decide a week before. The 22th maybe.
It makes me smile that somebody is at least interested. :mcglee: :mcglee: :mcglee:

I don't see why people aren't interested seeing as tons of folks do it in real life, but whatevs. Smiles are always good :mccute:

I would like to know if you have any books where you thought "that should I read together with somebody else"?
But I really look forward to may for the first round :qcute:

I don't think I've ever asked myself that question as most of my books are either "why am I reading this nightmare fuel!?!?!?" or "It's ADVENTURE TIME". I would have to shift through my library that's in storage to see if I have a few books that I haven't read that feels like group reading material.

What genre does everyone particularly likes? I stick to mostly sci-fi and horror, but am open to most everything.

Question, as it's been a couple of days into the month now, are we starting the book and how many chapters or pages should be read?
