How it works:
- Every month, the host will offer their choice of three books for the coming month.
- The community will vote on the book of the three offered.
- The host will post which book has been chosen on the first day of the month
- At the end of the month, the host will make a discussion post for questions and commentary about the book for that month.
- Everyone who read the book and wants to participate can comment to the post with their responses or pose further questions.
- The discussion posts will stay open indefinitely – if you run across this comm later, you can still contribute to the discussion.
Guidelines:
- You can participate any month that you like; there is no penalty if you skip a month for any reason.
- No flaming the host or questioning their taste in the book chosen. You are free to express your opinion about the book, but not about the host.
- The host will include trigger warnings with the poll for the books – judge for yourself as to whether the book for a particular month will cause issues for you.
- You can ‘read’ the book of the month in any format that you choose - whatever works for you, whether it is physical book, ebook, audio book. Even Cliff Notes or something similar if that’s what works.
- If you have previously read the chosen book, you are not required to re-read, just make sure you remember it well enough to discuss it.
- The best way to make sure the comm reads a book that you like is to sign up to host a discussion!
