[close] Read along with the WDJs week to week. Let us know your thoughts on the books we read. Let us know what we should be reading next.

[close] Welcome to Red Flags🚩 & Read Pages📖 Book Club, your ultimate dark corner of Goodreads. If your reading taste thrives on morally gray heroes, toxic red flags that you somehow mistake for validation, and stories that make you question your own moral compass, you have officially found your people. We don’t judge trigger warnings here—we use them as a shopping list. Here is what you can expect in our community: Monthly Group Reads: We vote on and dive into a new dark romance novel every month, followed by spoiler-filled group therapy—discussions. 📝✍🏼 No-Judgment Buddy Reads: Don't want to read a highly questionable, deeply unhinged standalone or series alone? Pair up in our buddy read threads so you can text someone "WHAT IS HAPPENING" at 2 AM. 📚 How Group Reads Work. The Selection: On the 25th of each month, we will drag 5 books out of the basement from our group shelf to put up for a poll. The Voting: Polls open immediately, and voting closes at 9:00 AM on the 30th of each month. Choose wisely; your choice dictates our shared trauma. The Golden Rule: Keep your mouth shut—strictly NO SPOILERS until the last day of each month. Break this rule, and we will let the stalker from chapter three know where you live. 🤐🤫 Before you dive into the forums, please introduce yourself in our Introduce Yourself thread and tell us your favorite toxic trope. Disclaimer: This group frequently discusses books containing mature themes, pitch-black content, and things you should probably clear from your browser history before you die unexpectedly. Members must be 18+ to join.
