Book club fiction :D

I think I've posted about it here before but :)

My friends eurii and aoshi and I all run a fiction book club together on LiveJournal. It's bookclubfiction and it's been going strong for over two years. We only read fiction, vote on genres, and then vote for books within each genre (and read 3 of them - 2 books with regular discussions and one book as a bonus).

I am totally biased but I find it to be a really fun book club format because everyone gets a say in the books that we choose. It's also super fun to read books together with friends and get to talk about them. Annnd let's be real, LJ is sort of deadles these days and it can be nice to have something to keep your friends list fresh. (We don't post too often though - usually 1-2 posts a week, with the exception being the weeks that we choose a new genre and new books for the next section.)

I would love if some more of you guys wanted to join and check it out :D it's also super low pressure and there's no need to participate reading books you don't feel like reading (though we do award participation in discussions with extra votes, so a book you want to read will be more likely to win)

We are nominating books today and tomorrow and will be seconding books to choose our top 3 starting on Thursday, so it's a good time to get involved if you want to check it out and see how the process works!

I don't often participate, mostly b/c I have my own priorities on what I want to read when and they rarely overlap, but it is interesting and fun when I do. :)

I just joined! We have a bunch of work going on in our house right now (requiring moving half the upstairs downstairs and us out for about a week).

But hopefully, once we have moved back in and gotten resettled I will be able to start reading with you guys

Yay! :D I hope you enjoy it once you have a chance it start up! It's also nice to have something to breathe a little more life into LiveJournal these days :)
