[close] Reading 50 books that were published last year. All genres. All good.

[close] Hello, jelly beans and mushrooms! This is a book club to read Queer and BIPoC literature, science fiction and decolonising our library. Come read with me, it's a safe space where we have discussions and talk about this dystopian "reality". There will be a new book every 2-3 months, most of them will be free and available online unless otherwise. I will be setting up a discord where discussions will take place, so stay tuned :))) Okay, well let's read!

[close] The book club meets at most once a month. We choose a theme at the end of each meeting and then people give their suggestions during and/or after the meeting that go with the theme. A poll will be made after each meeting and members will have one week to vote for their choice. Books 400+ pages long mean meetings will be scheduled five weeks or more after the poll is closed to give members a week per 100 pages. We are open to any theme and want members to enjoy the reading experience and the discussions. Our system of ranking the level of dislike to like for books/works: Hell > [Bottomless] Abyss > Fever Dream > Purgatory/Limbo > Earth/Grounded > Celestial > Heaven/Paradise

[close] The Writer Collective Goodreads group is dedicated to, as Karen Swallow Prior says, "reading well." We read diverse genres, approaching them through the framework of the good, beautiful, and true.
