since we've had some discussion of the same books being posted, here's 160 books i dont see posted here that often!
if there's any repeats on there don't come for me, i made this quickly hahaha. feel free to drop even more in comments! <3
edit: ok i already noticed i included deliver me by elle nash twice but in fairness i adore that book so i'm calling it justified
i know it sucks out there right now, but anyone trying to sell you a course on how to achieve success like them in a remote soft nursing role or medical device sales role is a scammer. if they made good money, they wouldn't be shilling courses on tiktok.
hello friends, this is my absolute favourite shirt and has been for many years, i have worn it entirely to death to the point where it's actually starting to disintegrate. i've been looking out for a replacement for years but never got lucky so thought i'd see if anyone has one in their closet that they bought and then forgot about or didn't like that much to wear, etc. if anyone is willing to sell me theirs i would be so grateful. any size would do really, though ideally a medium or up.
thanks for reading and even if you cannot help, i hope you have a great day!
We'll be having ongoing posts from u/noididntsayit22 month to month regarding voting, nominating, etc, but I thought it might be helpful to have all the info and past links in one place that's permanently pinned. I'll add the threads here as they're posted so it's easy to find all past posts.
At present the plan is to have a monthly vote on themes, nominate books, and then vote on which of the top nominations we want to read. We'll have a discussion thread on the subreddit and a monthly meeting (platform tbc.) I'll add those details when we have them. If you have any suggestions or things you'd prefer we do differently, feel free to add them here and we can discuss.

feel free to post any other comments/suggestions/arguments below
hi all, we're really wanting to get the book club started, if anyone has any experience or interest in running a book club on reddit and would like to help please shoot us a mod mail!
some from charity shops, some from vinted
helloo, i'm gonna pop up a vote in a couple days for which themes we wanna start with for book club so please let me know any themes you'd like included in the vote. feel free to post here or on the pinned post, i'll check both before i make a poll. thanks all x
any recs based on what i've loved?
hi all, just a quick request here - people have been fantastic about using spoilers for their posts and it's much appreciated. just wanted to ask that y'all also be mindful of the titles you choose when posting, as you may also be unintentionally spoiling content for people. for example, if you title your post "thoughts on x book as a csa survivor" people are going to infer that there's csa content in the book, which they may not want to know before starting it. many people check trigger warnings, but there are still people who prefer to go in knowing nothing.
much appreciated x
(edit) to reiterate/clarify: this post is just asking you to be mindful of spoilers in post TITLES because spoiler tags cannot be applied to them. you're free to post spoilers in post body or comments, just use spoiler tags when appropriate.
Hi all, I'm your new mod and I'm gonna attempt to get a book club going. I read through all the responses in the previous pinned post and the overwhelming majority are in favour of monthly, so we'll go with that. Our founder would prefer we stay on reddit vs having a discord or some other off-site group for discussion, so our likely format is going to be a monthly run of pinned threads for nominations, voting, and then discussion.
A number of people suggested themed months, and I think that's a really good idea. I think the best way to go about that is probably to nominate/vote on 12 themes for the coming year and rotate through them, since then we don't need to go through the process of nominations/voting for both a theme and a book every single month. I'm aware a lot of people are mood readers and may prefer to do it as we go, so let me know if you'd prefer that and if there's a sizeable preference for that we can reconsider.
I have some ideas for themes, which come under two broad categories as follows...
General bookish themes and we pick weird girl books from within each, some examples:
- BIPoC rep
- LGBTQIA+ rep
- neurodivergence and/or mental health rep
- translated
- horror
- non fiction & memoirs
Weird girl lit genre tropes, some examples:
- unreliable narrator
- obsession
- female rage
- morally grey
- mental/emotional spiral
- isolation/alienation
We could stick to one type or have a mix of the two theme types, I'm sure there's plenty of other ideas for themes I haven't included here so do feel free to suggest any you'd like to see.
TLDR: Please let me know:
- do you support monthly themes, or prefer free for all monthly nominations?
- if we go with themes, would you prefer nominations/voting monthly or 12 months at a time for theme choice? Or somewhere inbetween like quarterly?
- any actual theme suggestions I haven't mentioned that you'd like to see?
My general aim is going to be to hash out the planning and pick themes over the next couple weeks so we can get voting on a book for June and start the monthly reading then! Since we're keeping it on reddit it will be fairly casual - we can have a pinned post for the book of the month and people can contribute as and when they read the book. We can keep a running list as we go with links to past books/discussions so anyone joining in the future can find and comment on old book club threads if they'd like. Open to suggestions if anyone has any other ideas.
I'll leave this up for a while so y'all have plenty of time to input/respond and then the next post will probably be theme voting (unless there's a huge amount of disagreement with that idea)
mostly arcs this month somehow, have yall read any of these?
