|| IF Book Club : The Next Chapter # 2 ||

Hello everyone, my name is Anam and I enjoy reading and hence decided to start a book club. I've been toying with the idea of a book club for a while now but often wondered if anyone would be interested in being part of it, considering that there are several book clubs already. A big thank you to the five members who showed an interest in the idea of a book club and encouraged me to start one. 

One of main reasons to start a book club is to read varied genres which unfortunately I haven't been very good at doing. I'm assuming it is the same with some others here as well; we are very comfortable in sticking to the genres we have always been reading. Hopefully this book club will change that for us without making us go way out of our comfort zones; because at the end of the day we have to enjoy what we are reading, which is always the main reason to read. 

1. The book club will start from the 1st of August and will be on a monthly basis. 
2. To avoid confusion, the book club picks will be decided by me (based on your suggestions, Goodreads lists, must read lists, bestseller lists, etc.) and will be announced here a day before the end of the month so that you can get a copy of the book.
3. Those who don't have a physical copy of the book, an ebook link will be put up the first of the month so that there are no issues on that front. 
4. If at any point, more than 3 members have read the book chosen for the month, a new book will be picked out. 
5. Discussions will happen at the end of the month about what we liked and disliked about the book to enrich our reading experience. Discussions need not be lengthy or highly intellectual, a couple of lines  on what we liked and disliked will also suffice. Everyone is encouraged to be a part of the discussion so that we get different viewpoints. 
6. Feel free to join in and become a member at any point. There is no compulsion to read every month's book club pick. Do let me know in advance if you are going to be a part or will be opting out a particular month. 

                Hope many of you join in and we have a good time reading

Thanks for the thread :)

Can you also post all the books of this month in one post?

Thanks for the new thread, Anam! And congratulations to us all for finishing the first one so fast

I'm rather enjoying reading so many books in a short time. The only time it has happened before was when I was reading a series. Also thanks to you for selecting short books

@bold: Neither did I tbh. The only reason is that I haven't downloaded the rest of the books yet, and this is the only book already uploaded to my reader.
