Lulu’s comments from the Unbounded Readers group.

Sounds great to me - Where are you others? Still up for it?

That sounds like a good idea. What do others think?

That's what I'd do. I would say that all of us who are members now, will by default get our books read at some point.

Hello all. Who is in favour of reading an Unbound/indy pub book every month and discussing it/sharing the heck out of it as we go? I think it would be a good way of putting things out there, but obviously takes a bit of time commitment. Who would be into that?

I think we might have to pull the book out of a hat, eventually, unless we all get our reading heads on and just go through ALL of our books as they come out? Not a bad thing at all, but potentially unmanageable?

Let me know your thoughts. Lulu x

Hi Jennie, perhaps a regular slot would be good. Do we collectively have time to set and read a book at the same time? It would be great if so, but I suspect it might be a stretch time-wise? What does anyone think?

Or we could get together and discuss books more generally, what is on our lists etc?

I would be happy to do a classic book club, read an Unbound/other indy book a month and discuss it as we go, but we would then be needing to decide how it is chosen, which books get read. Feel free to throw in your thoughts people.

I am not sure Ivy. Perhaps we should duplicate on the FB page for now until we can make this a 'thing'?

Hi Ivy, I'm blundering around a bit too. But I think we'll manage to find a shape for it! For example, I am not sure if all group members see these messages - could someone let me know? Once I know, I have an idea to share.

Now, are we all going to read the same book? Or are we going to discuss in a more open way? We could start a list of recently published Unbound books and discuss them as readers in an ad-hoc way? Or make a book for the month type list.

Certainly for the time being, I propose we float around and see how things develop, but I thought I may as well keep the conversation going!

Happy Sunday evening, all x
