This book club is an idea submited my Smart1, this is his explanation on how the book club works:
Let's say that five people join the book club, everyone in the club makes nominations for books that they want everyone to read, then they vote on the nominations. let's just take for example that the first book of the Series of Unfortunate events wins, then everyone in the book club will have to get their hands on a copy of this and read the book. A few chapters will have to be read each week(or more or less depeding on the book) then after that week, we, as a club, discuss the book and whatever we were supposed to read.
Okay, this sounds like a really fun idea to me! If you would like to join the book club, please PM me (my PM name is admin, or just click on the PM button under my avatar) and tell me if you would like to join! After we get at least five people to join, we'll start nominations for the book to read!
Here is the list of people who have joined the book club so far:
Ali
~*Aurora*~
bonemaster13
De Rigueur
Empress Kitty
Football54
Sailor Jupiter

Spirit

OKay, we now have enough members to start the book club! Now, people can still join in the book club whever they wish! So still keep joining! Anyway...we need to make some nominations for the book that the book club is going to read! The only rule is: The books nominated can be taken out by Empress Kitty or I if we feel that the book is a little TOO innapropriate. Anyway, members of the book club only can send me PM's with as many book nominations as they like! Remember, you can still join if you are not a member yet! I can't wait to start!  |

Alright, I guess that no more votes will be coming in. The top two books are: The Bad Beginning (From the Series of Unfortunate events) Eragon Vote for the one book that you would like to see the book club start reading and discussing. And, um...could the members of the book club actually participate and vote in this? I think that it would be a lot of fun if we would all participate. Happy voting! |
