our book club has had a makeover!!!!!
still 'shit you should read about', only better!! + this months book pick: Martyr!
Our book club (the cutest on the internet) is a bonus for our paid supporters! If you’re interested in joining, you know what to do!
Babies!! Hi!!! I feel like I need to be honest with you… whenever I get busy, the Book Club is the first thing to fall off my desk, and honestly, it brings me a LOT of guilt. So, I asked you over on Close Friends what to do about it, and most of you told me to DELEGATE, and that’s what I’ve done.
‘Shit You Should Read About’ is now going to be run by my best friend Abby (who you’ll meet in a second) and me (of course.) I’m so excited for this new era of the Book Club and I think you will be too!
Meet Abby: My best friend and your new book club host!!!!
Omg hi to all the cute bookies!! I’m Abby, a graphic designer (including for Shit You Should Care About!!!) who uses reading as an escape from the multiple screens I have to stare at in my job!
If I’m not reading, I am usually thrifting or chasing the sun around the house like a cat, but I am addicted to my Kindle (lol another screen) and have been snared by fantasy booktok for the past year so I am hoping to branch out into different genres with this book club!! I can’t wait to chat with you all & get your recommendations eeeek, I luv this community!!
☆My fave books ☆
A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket (kickstarted my love for reading back in primary)
Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid (i’m a sucker for anything 70’s)
& ofc, Make It Make Sense by Luce & Bel ♡
The next thing to know: we’re moving platforms!
Behind the scenes, we’ve been trying to figure out the best way to run this cute corner of the SYSCA universe - we have found Discord can be a bit confusing, hard to talk about books without spoilers and honestly, we don’t gravitate toward using this platform and that's not fair on you guys!
So, we’ve been reading your messages + done some research and are going to be migrating over to the Fable app! Fable is super cute and user-friendly and has the best book club features out of all the bookie platforms!! (+ you can import your Goodreads library easily).
We’re able to spotlight our chosen book of the month and the discussion forums are dedicated chapter-by-chapter so you can follow along while you read with no spoilers! We’ve been testing it out the past few weeks and we truly think you’ll love it too ♡
