We're going to be starting something new for 2021. I've adapted this from another group and think this could be really fun.
TBR Twins, is where you are paired together with another member and you pick a book that is on both of your TBR and read it together. The idea that it will give you both motivation to get through some of those books that have been on your TBR for a while.
How it works: 1. You sign up before the 15th of the month. When signing up you need to list three categories of something you want to read. This could be a more general genre, or a specific trope. 2. Between the 15th and 20th of the month you will be paired up. These pairs will be semi-random. The best efforts will be made to pair you up with someone who has a similar category on the sign up. 3. You and your pair choose which book you are going to read and post it in the thread. 4. You have the entire of the following month to read it and you can use the thread to discuss together, while using spoiler tags as there will be many books being discussed.
Recommendations and Tips: - I would recommend being happy to add other members as a Goodreads friend as this will make choosing books easier. - Your TBR should be saved on your goodreads 'Want To Read' shelf or somewhere where you are happy to share. - When you are paired up, click on the user's name that you've been paired with and go to their want to read shelf - click 'Compare Books' at the top of the page - this will tell you what books you both have in common.
