Welcome to the New MobileRead Bookclub
Welcome everyone. This is the new iteration of the MobileRead Bookclub.
This is where we read books of different genres. We are going to do this monthly. If anyone has anything to add or wants changed or has any ideas, feel free to say so. For 20201, I am thinking of... May: ScienceFiction June: Mystery July: Free-for-All August: Classics September: Non-FIction October: Horror November: History December: Thriller, Suspense & Crime Last edited by JSWolf; 05-07-2021 at 08:11 AM. |

[QUOTE=John F;4119594]This was from the other thread:
And from the first post: I say either go with your original proposal or the last MRBC. Substituting Horror in October makes sense to me also (given the Halloween holiday)./QUOTE] I'm going with the last list I made. I do think for next year we can mix it up but that would be a group decision. |

I like these categories, except I'm confused about June vs December. Can someone give a few examples of books which are mystery, and not thriller, suspense, or crime? (I glanced at the categories on a couple of bookshops, but that didn't help.) When we get to voting, I strongly prefer that we don't require all voters to read whichever book ends up winning. I want to be able to opt out with a clear conscience if the winner turns out to be something I don't want to read. |

Thriller... Vince Flynn books, Dan Brown books I won't force anyone to read the winning book. But I would hope if you've voted for the winning book that would read it. Otherwise, why vote for it if you aren't going to read. |

The list looks fun. I'll try to join in on months I can participate. I know we've already started May so not sure about this month with timing yet.
