You know what, this is a brilliant idea. Ok count me in. I think (I am sure) I can only manage one book per month. XD Maybe this will motivate my lazy ass to start reading again. Looking forward to this. (;

this is really a great idea. And starting slow with 1 book per month is also goo. And maybe we can have different themes every month too? So we can read variations of it?

I'm definitely definitely in! What a wonderful idea, Racheal!!!

I'm squeaking from excitement..^^

 

As for your questions, both of your suggestions sound perfect to me - 1 book per month & a poll to decide which one to read next..:D

for allowing this to happen. this is such a good idea, i really liked it. 1 book/month is a good start. & creating a poll is a good solution as well. i also seconded

idea about different theme. that allowed us to try new stuff & step out from our comfort zone (read: mostly my comfort zone lol).

 

i have one question tho. before we could start, can you (Racheal as a moderator here) decided which kind of discussion we should engage in? was it like a buddy read type? focus on challenges? relaxed or chatty/actively talking book club? (credit: goodreads)

 

for me i prefer buddy read type of discussion as i'm not a chatty type of person hehee what about you guys? & mod? :D

 

 

thanks again for this opportunity!

This is wonderful! I'm so excited. :Excited:

 

I also think 1 book per month is enough as a start then maybe we can adjust from there depending on the members' schedule and how fast the first book have been read. Also I like the idea suggested by

Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.
of having different themes each month as well as creating a poll so we can vote which book to read.

 

Or if there is any way to do so, maybe radomize which title will be read. Like, for this specific theme, we list titles then we randomly pick one. I guess... XD

and I are guilty of the chatty type discussions XD but I think it's good to discuss in-depth about what we read and observed from the book also. I like in-depth reading and analyzing and taking apart the characters' personalities and behavior. :D

Well, this sounds like it could be fun!

 

1 book per month...

Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.
knows I devour a crazy amount of books in just one month but sure! 1 book per month for now sounds great while we get used to the mechanics of the book club.

 

As of which book shall we read, maybe we can create some sort of poll? we select a few of them, we share the plot and then we vote on which book sounds the most interesting? :yoyo:

Hi guys, sorry for a little slow reply today. I just have time. I am very surprised that we reached 2 pages already !!. Since most of us seem to agreed with 1 book/month for now, and using voting to find the title we're going to read next.

 

 

Next, Let's talk about what

Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.
and
Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.
suggested, but we are still open for the discussion and opinion about amount of book and vote for title, so tell us if you think differently.

 

For the themes that Jochie suggested, there are 2 things we have to decide. First, do you guys agree about having theme or not, and who is going to decided which theme we're going to use. If we're going to use theme. We want to predetermine for the rest of the year before we start.

 

For pros and cons, having theme will make the reading more challenging and interesting, but may limited the choice of the book we're going to read each month too. Please let's me know what you think about this topic, and I will narrow them down then we can vote.

 

If you agreed with having theme for our club. The next question would be how we're going to decide for all of them. I suggest we vote for it too. We have 7months left this year, but I would like to do 8 for January too since I think we are probably busy at the end of the year, so if we decided to have theme. I would like you guys to suggest the theme you have in mind and we can vote for it.

 

 

For voide's suggestion about the type of discussion.

 

For me, I don't want to be so strict with how and what we are going to share here. I want it to come out from you naturally.

 

TBH, the only reason the idea of book club came to my mind because while I am doing upload /re-upload I see all of you randomly talking about books here and there and seem to having so much fun, so I think how much fun it's going to be if we read the same book at the same time because all the feeling, emotions and opinions will still be fresh, so I suggest we do it casually. If you have anything you want to talk even how you feel about the cover, you should be able to. If you don't like the book at all and need some help and push, I want you to be able to do that too. I know we read in different pact, but you can always mention how far you are now, for example : chapter 8, and then put spoiler on all the contents. [We can include this in the rules too] and last week of each month when most of us finished the book, we can do serious discussion for the whole book too like

Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.
suggested

 

 

I think it's good to discuss in-depth about what we read and observed from the book also. I like in-depth reading and analyzing and taking apart the characters' personalities and behavior.

 

What do you guys think? Please don't worries about the thread will be too long . I will start a new thread every month and the pin post will only have important information such as; rules, themes, and the title of the month, and will be serve as directory to the book threads that we have already read, so other members who're interested in these books will be able to read your discussions too.

 

This is just my opinion, and of cause I am open for your opinion and suggestion, so please don't hesitate.

 

can you (Racheal as a moderator here) decided which kind of discussion we should engage in?

 

 

Please don't think about me as club's moderator. Please think about me as our club secretary ;P . This book club is all about you guys.

 

 

I think these would be all we have to think of for now.

yoyo5 you don't know how happy I am to see you here with us. I know how busy you are. I am over the moon now.

 

Voide, we can try and see if we can find audiobook for fan_yaoi Some MM Novels also have audio book too.

 

You already came here. We won't let you go that easy

Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.
I know most of us here read more than a book/ a month, and some of us probably 3-5 books a week, like you and Mochi ^^; but the reason I suggested 1 book/ month because everybody has different taste when it comes to book, so I want you guys to have time to read and enjoy your own favorite book too, not just books we choose here. Also some of us are so busy and rarely have time to read. If we go for more than one book/ month, it will be hard to manage for some of us in long-term.

 

and yes we will let's everybody suggest books they like and then we will vote, but before that we will have to decide on theme first ;D

yay! you've been so busy tonight.. I'm so happy you are here..foxy2

 

I'll answer on my part...^^

 

 

First, do you guys agree about having theme or no

For me it doesn't matter either way:) How would it work - do we pick 8 themes now? and then we pick one book based on this theme?

It could be fun, why not.. We can try stuff like "polygamy", "age gap", "asian novel", "YA".. there could be so many cool ideas:)

i think if we pick interesting & challenging themes, it would be much easier to first of all, pick the book every month (not all thousands of books to choose from every month) & it will broaden our horizons:D i'm all up for that:D:D

 

so ok, i vote in favor of the themes after all:D

 

For voide's suggestion about the type of discussion.

 

For me, I don't want to be so strict with how and what we are going to share here. I want it to come out from you naturally.

 

TBH, the only reason the idea of book club came to my mind because while I am doing upload /re-upload I see all of you randomly talking about books here and there and seem to having so much fun, so I think how much fun it's going to be if we read the same book at the same time because all the feeling, emotions and opinions will still be fresh, so I suggest we do it casually.

 

Yep, natural & casual are the key words here for me as well:D I think it's much more fun if there are no rules or limitations.. if we want to go deep - we can.. if we want to discuss the sexiness of the cover, we should be able too.. so yay! I agree:)

 

@Mochi without you this club would be so quite. You are not allow to go on hiatus anymore. :p

Nah.. it's such an awesome idea, there will be so many people, so it's never going to be quiet.. but you're super sweet!foxy2

Ok, first, I agree on the 1 book for a month. I read a lot but with my work I sometimes can be really busy, so, yeah, 1 book as a challenge is fine. For starters. Who knows we all can become addictive to this club and discussions :D

About themes. Yeah, I like it. I mean I usually prefer "save" stories (you know, like shifters and 100%-HEA), but sometimes I like to try something new. That will push me to step out from my comfort zone. And there are so many books so the theme limit will be really helpful, I think.

 

Oh, and I totally want to try this with audiobooks! That will be interesting. I listen CD-dramas sometimes, but MM-audiobooks is uncharted territory for me.

i like the suggestions you gave..i am all up for audiobook and if its one book a month decided on a poll on a specific genre i think everyone can mnage it no matter how busy life is..it would be pretty amazing..And everyone who reads books loves to talk about books..i always talk my best friend's ears off about books, manga and dramas i like..so its good..Thank you again Racheal for this amazing idea..

I probably won't see this thread if no one notifies me. I'm not the 'surfing' type...

 

Yeah, I agree with 1 book per month. When I'm really into it, I can read 1 book per day. If it is short enough, like

 

I think with choosing theme for each month will make the book we read more organize. I'm neutral in this part.

 

I am not a chatty type. I rarely pop-up in threads unless asking for 'reupload' or 'request' or if there's someone tagging me. But I will happily join the discussion! Although maybe I'll not appear so often...

 

Audiobook?

Well, I LOVE it SO MUCH!

I am definitely in!

[Maybe we can have one or two month in a year to have an 'audiobook' theme?]

 

I've concerns 'tho.

1. If a member finishes a book faster than the other and starts discussing it, wouldn't that makes some kind of spoilers? I'm not oposed to spoilers. On contradiction, I like it! But what about others who don't?

 

2. What if I missed the book of the month? Will I still be a member?

hmm perhaps you could have half of the books you choose this year belonging to a theme and the other half more random?

that way you guys could try both "themed"-novels and random novels that are for example "new". :D

Well its just a suggestion :p do a litte 50/50, perhaps also with the spoler/discusion, give peopel some time to finnish in the beggining and then somewhere in the middle of the month-ish-ish those who have finnished could start talking.

That way those who need more time, wont miss out too much of the discussions and those who read fast dont need to wait to long and "hold it in" XD

well its just an suggestion, dont mind me :rolleyes:

After all im just observing atm :o

 

 

Oooh Secretary sounds good :)

P.S belive me... there was other options on the " Secretary" image- search but this one was the one with most clothes on and that looked classy.

this is the best idea ever!! and thanks for tagging me,
Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.
too, i think otherwise i would have never noticed it XP

oooh i'm soo excited!! XD

 

so let's see...

 

-i vote for the one book a month, at least for now. i mean i read a lot more in 1 month but if you up the number i may not have time for other book i like, and if it happen that the voted book isn't to my liking i will need more to finish it, probably putting it down and picking it up again later. so yeah 1 book a month is good.

 

- for how to choose the book i agree with the voting pool;

as for the theme thing i agree more with fan_yaoi, i think alternating the books like 1 month a themed one - 1 month a whatever you want one is better, or maybe you go with the themed books most of the time and slide in a couple of jolly month in which you can freely suggest the books you like

 

-audiobook, well now i only agree with this if there is both writed novel and audiobook, because while i have no problem reading, understanding pronunciation when listening is a little more complicated( because english, you couldn't speak how you write, no?)

 

still whatever you decide i'm definitely in!!! can't wait to start!!!XDXD
