I mentioned the idea of a book club connected to the SFWA Fantasy Storybundle that I posted about last week in my reader run fan group, and a bunch of readers seemed interested. So we discussed the idea, I suggested a schedule, and the ‘club’ officially starts tomorrow.
How it will work: I’ll introduce a book every two weeks (see the schedule below) here on my blog and in Facebook group, along with links and some extra info about the author, etc. If it is a trilogy, we’ll read the first book for the club. The main discussion will take place in my fan group, but if you aren’t on Facebook please feel free to start a discussion on the specific blog posts as well.
A few of the authors might be participating as well. Fun! Fun! But I’ll confirm who and how as we move forward.
The schedule:
- Wednesday, January 30 – Al-Kabar by Lee French
- Wednesday, February 13 – Amaskan’s Blood by Raven Oak
- Wednesday, February 27 – Ashwin by Kit Rocha
- Wednesday, March 13 – Blade and Rose by Miranda Honfleur
- Wednesday, March 27 – Catching Echoes by Meghan Ciana Doidge
- Wednesday, April 10 – Dragon Blood Omnibus by Lindsay Buroker
- Wednesday, April 24 – Genrenauts by Michael R. Underwood
- Wednesday, May 8 – Radiance by Grace Draven
- Wednesday, May 22 – The Arrows of the Heart by Jeffe Kennedy
- Wednesday, June 5 – The Glass Gargoyle by Marie Andreas
- Wednesday, June 19 – The Raven and the Reindeer by T. Kingfisher
- Wednesday, July 3 – The Twenty-Sided Sorceress by Annie Bellet
Some of you might own some of these books already, or prefer to get them from the library, but if you’re interested in purchasing the book bundle you can find more information about it here: https://storybundle.com/fantasy or in my previous blog post.
Also I understand that sticking to a two week schedule might be difficult (for me as well) so if you need to skip books, or pick and choose what you have the time to read, no worries. Please participate as you are able. This is all just for fun.
Let me me know if you have any questions. The book club officially launches tomorrow with Al-Kabar by Lee French! I’m about a third of the way through my read so far and quite enjoying the world Lee has created.
I hope you can join me. It should be fun.
Wow this sounds like so much fun. I hope to start tomorrow as well.
Yay! I’m glad you’re joining me. 😊
How does this work? Are we starting to read the book today, or are we discussing it today? I’m in the middle of a book right now and would like to finish it before I start a new one.
However you want to read/discuss within the two week period. I started the book a few days ago but I’m not finished yet. Since we’re discussing online I figure we can pop in and out however it works for our schedule.
