I’ve realized that I’m reading less and less, which saddens me greatly since I actually love disappearing into a good book. The reasons for this varies, it’s everything from “not having time” or “having trouble finding good books” but in truth i’ve just become lazy. It’s just easier to scroll though tumblr and watching youtube videos. However, the time for reading is back. So I’ve decided to create this tiny book club to help motivate myself (and others) to start reading again!
It will work like this:
Week 1: We decide which books we should read. You are all welcome suggest a book and later I will create a poll with the most popular ones + a few unusual options. Later we will vote for one winner.
Week 2 & 3: We read. Since people’s schedules look different and the reading pace varies I’ve decided that you get two weeks for reading one book. It might seem short but don’t worry about not being able to finish, I’ve created a loophole.
Week 4: Time to express all your thoughts and feelings. There’s going to be a discord server for this part. So we’ll be able to talk about the book of the month! In the server we will have a few different channels. Like one general channel, one spoiler free channel (hence, the loophole) etc. By the end of this week I’ll clean out this channel in preparation for the next book.
Questions:
- “Are we just reading ya?” No. All types of books are welcomed to be suggested.
- “Do I have to partake every month?” No, you just partake when you want to.
- “How do I join the discord server?” I’m going to post a link to the server, then you’re in. You’ll need a discord account for this.
- “Do I have to join the discord group?” Nope! There’s to pressure at all to join the discord group. But if you wanna write reviews/make edits for our book of the month be sure to tag it #leominors so everyone can see it and I can reblog it to the blog!
How to enter:
