This is about my book club with bookcrossing!
Thanks for joining my book club. Still working on that cool name. Remember ideas are welcome.
The six members are:
Me (Jas330) (Washington)
kymberlie (Texas)
MsPooh (Texas)
arugh48187) (Minnesota)
fly46 (Ohio)
lilmztaz (South Carolina)
This will be the order of the books (and the order we go in for who gets to choose the books). What we will do is whoever is in charge will start and then go to the first person on the list. For example, it's fly's month to choose a book – she will then send the book to me first and then I will send it to kymberlie. And so on. I was going to do it so that fly would send it to the next person below her, but I figured if we did that there was a chance that books would get piled up at some one’s house.
We will start in October – try to ship out the book within the first 3-4 days of the month. The reason we are starting in October is because, I’ve been reading mainly bookrings/rays lately, and the few of my own choice books I have read, I have sent off. So I don’t have a book to start the club off with yet.
Here is the order for whose month is whose –
October – Jas330
November – Kymberlie
December – MsPooh
January – arugh48187
February - Fly46
March – Lilmztaz
We will just keep up the rotation. Since this is a book club write a detailed review about the book after reading. Also if you’d like, if you are the one sending off the book, feel free throw in a couple of starter questions for the book.
Remember any genre is okay for this book club – but try to keep away from little little kid books. In other words: no mainly picture books. YA books are okay if you really liked it. But otherwise no children’s books. When you pick your book the only requirement is that you really enjoyed the book. Also try to not pick any books over 400 pages (and if possible below that) since I’d like to keep the books moving along rather quickly. Try not to keep the book more than 2 weeks (unless there are extending circumstances) so that we can get it going around quickly.
I’d like everyone to get to know each other – I’d like to be able to know each other’s personalities. So if you wanted to drop a PM by the other members – that would be nice. Just a thought, don’t feel obligated.
I’m going to try and set up a website (or just a page or something) with all this info. More information on that later.
If you have any other questions or rules that you think should be laid out feel free to PM me with them. I started this book club, but I don’t want to be the one in charge, I’d like it to be a group thing.
Now that I have this website up -- I'll show the different books everyone choose and what not. Coolio -- again, feel free to e-mail me with suggestions.
