Book Club, Take 2!
Now on Facebook, where we probably should have been all along. Sorry, Amazon, youse gots work ta do before your Clubs are ready for Prime time, ha!
Thinking of starting an Amazon Book Club?
Yeah. Don’t.
Now, we thank you from the cockles of our bottom-feeding hearts, those of you who signed up for our Amazon-based Book Club a month back.
HOWEVER…we quickly learned that:
Posting anything on the Amazon book club page didn’t send a notification. To anyone. Wtf.
We had no way to actually contact those who signed up - Amazon kept all that info confidential. That’s fine, but when combined with point #1 above…
We essentially we had a “Book Club” page with literally no way to ever contact or communicate with anyone who joined. Ever.
If a member didn’t think to revisit the page all on their own steam, they’d never remember it even existed.
I know this Book Club element on Amazon is still in “early access”, but ffs….
So we regrouped, rethought and ARE NOW ON FACEBOOK:
What were once the “June” graphic novels are now the “August” graphic novels. Links are provided to purchase or borrow the volumes, we’ll be posting ideas for drink pairings as August rolls on, AND we’ll host a Livestream to discuss the books in the final week of August.
We also have September’s books already picked out, BUT…we may also put each month’s books to a vote. We’ll see how this little experiment goes.
If we’re already friends on Facebook, you’ll likely have gotten an invite to join the Group already. But if not, it’s open to all, so please use the link above and join freely!
You can see full write-ups for the books and even watch our recorded “Read-Alongs” of the first chapter of each book here.
We hope to see you there!
