MobileRead Author book club interest
Somebody suggested a Mobile Read author book club in another thread, and I was wondering how many people would be interested.
I would be interested, but don't think I would participate every month (there don't seem to be that many member authors). Maybe have a new book every other month? I have a nice TBR list of MR authors, but don't seem to get around to them (sorry guys), and a book club would be a nice push to get me to read more. ***I am in no way implying that I will run the club. ![]() Last edited by Dr. Drib; 06-04-2010 at 09:03 AM.

Hello, I think it's a great idea. Like Lene, I would participate if the book looked interesting. I'd hate to read an author's book - or have anyone read one of mine - out of a sense of duty.
I ought to mention that I'm a Mobile Read author. |

I'm a little surprised the vote is 7-6. I didn't think the idea would be so iffy.

Interesting idea! As an author, my participation might depend on how many other projects were currently in the pipeline, so I will refrain from obligating myself by a vote... but I heartily approve.
