♡ The Cozy Book Nook ♡ discussion

Hey mods! Here's our chat! :P

Yay!

Can I join in the general chat please

Hey, I was thinking of making a poll in the group of what we could improve on. Members would be able to put in their own answers, but to create a poll you need a few options that they can choose from in the beginning (if that makes sense, because you can't not put in any options).

Any opinions of what those first few options could be?

@Reed Yes there's a members chat! Here's the link: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Maybe I should specify that:)

Yes you probably should

@Catherine I like that idea!

maybe a few options like:
-We want more games
-we want a theme for the BOTM (ex. It's October so maybe choosing a thriller or horror)
-we want more active chats (not saying they aren't active but just an idea!)

those are what I have!

All of those ideas sound great! I was also thinking that we could add writing prompts, because I noticed that quite a few people write as well as read here.

It seems like The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is a popular book right now. However, it would be nice to have some people decide that they want to read the book before the thread is made- that way a thread isn't made and then nobody wants to read the book.

How about we make a poll asking about whether people would be interested in reading the book or not? If a reasonable number of people say yes, then we can make the thread.

Great, thanks! :P

Hey!! I wanted to let you all know that I won't be as active as usual this week because I have work constant in the mornings and soccer throughout the week also! I should be good by Friday though

Thanks for telling us! Sorry I didn't reply earlier, but good luck in both your work in soccer:)

Hey y'all, I was thinking of creating a topic under readalongs. It'll explain what readalongs are and also let people suggest books for our next readalong. Thoughts?

yeah that does seem like a good idea!

@V No problem, I hope you had lots of fun!

Definitely! People would be able to suggest books they think would make a good readalong, and if a couple other people agree, we could set up a readalong.

I can, actually! Thanks, though! :)

Thank you! I am too😃

Hey, since fun reads are basically the same as readalongs, what do you think about adding the I Kissed Shara Wheeler thread to the readalongs folder?

Awesome! Thanks:)

How is everyone doing? :P

hope you feel better V :/

I've been nonatop with soccer, work and school so its been hard. how are you Catherine??

*nonstop

also I have an idea for a challenge!

I was thinking about having a readathon between September and October to have spooky, thriller, horror, ect. for the readathon. there would be prompts that would help you get more points too!

Oh my gosh- have you been able to rest a lot? I hope you're doing better now!

Ohh, I'm sorry. I hope all of it can be fun for you in some way😔

I've been doing pretty good! A little busy, but it's definitely manageable. I've been trying to practice time management XD

Yay! That's a great idea. I was going to ask y'all about times for challenges, since the High Summer readathon ends in September. I'm going to start thinking of prompts today!

Thanks Mackenzie!

alrighty!! we could probably have sign up open late August or the start of September and go from there!

Sounds good!

In terms of prompts, just to throw out some ideas, I was thinking:

RAB= Read a book
1. Read a murder mystery
2. RAB where the main character doesn't have a sidekick
3. RAB that includes ghosts

Honestly, I've almost never read a horror/thriller before, so I'm totally open to other ideas! XD

I'll add more as I think of them!

How are you feeling, V?

Oh no. I hope you can set aside time in your busy schedule to relax and take care of yourself:) I'm glad you're feeling better!

Yay V!! Feeling is is the worst:/ Are you doing anything for the weekend?

that sounds fun! I'm having my championship game tonight so I'm really excited!!

pretty well!! how about yourself!

@Mackenzie How did the championship game go??

@V I'm doing good! I got to read a lot this weekend:)

We won actually!! it was just a tournament though so we have more games. but it was really fun!

Congratulations Mackenzie!! That's so cool!

I'm so glad you had fun:) Good luck on your next game! When is it?

we had one Monday and we have one today!

how are you Catherine?

hey! how are you all doing?

Ahh sorry for the late reply, y'all!

@Mackenzie Oo how are the tournaments going?

I'm doing well! I've been pretty unsuccessfully at gardening all my life, but I planted some flowers and they're just sprouting! Hopefully they don't die😂

How are you?
