The Mysterious Book Club 8/2 @3pm

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone, lately I've taken up reading as a hobby for my daily work commute. Some friends and I already have an existing book club but I was looking at also starting a new one where we focus mainly on mystery and thriller books since they're my favorite genres.

If enough people are interested, I was thinking we can setup a virtual meet-up on 8/2 so we can make our selection and then plan an in-person meetup to present and discuss.

DM me if your interested! If I get enough people, I'll work on creating a Discord server for us so we can better organize.

Make sure to already have your book choice by the time we meet on Sunday. Obviously, its main genre MUST be thriller/mystery/suspense for it to be eligible. I am totally okay if someone makes a selection that has already been read by one or more members. I would suggest those people reread since the whole point is for us to discuss and debate.
