June Book Club
The "book club post" will be posted on June 25th. All comments about the selected book will be welcome in that post. Reviews of the book should not be posted to the community.
This month, the book selection will be at random based on the poll results. I'm going to take the suggestions of your fellow readers and institute a "genre" or "theme" based policy for the next few months. If that goes well, then that's how we'll do the book selection for the club. Books that are not selected this month will be rotated into the poll for that specific theme/genre when it comes up. In early June, I will select the theme/genre for July's book club (suggestions via PM or comment are welcome), I'll then ask for book suggestions related to that theme/genre and post a poll for book selection.
As always, comments are welcome. I'm new to all of this. If some of you have experience and think there's a "better way," I'm all ears. Even if you don't have experience, if you can think of a better way, I'm happy to listen to your suggestions. I want the book club (and this community) to be successful! :D
