Michael C. White: Soul Catcher - Groups

Overview: Groups

Black History 58 books / 58 members / 158 posts This group is for avid readers of non-fictional and fictional works related to black history and its hero(ine)s.

Good Reads 22 books / 368 members / 1098 posts The motto for this group is "Anything goes." Any genre and every genre.

How it's going to work is that each month a different member will select 4 or 5 books that he would like to read. He will then post a new thread with the titles in it. At that point the rest of us can respond with our vote. By the end of the voting period (the 15th of the month), the book with the most votes will win. In case of a tie, both books will be selected and if members want to read both books, they may, or if you want to choose which one you read, that is fine as well.

In order to be selected to nominate books you have to have participated in the book voting or discussion two months prior. Participation means discussing or voting. The reason the person who nominates books is selected two months in advance is because the date of voting begins so early.

All genres will be accepted as appropriate for this group. It can be anything from a best seller, horror, drama, real life, non-fiction, humor, YA, children's, science fiction, classic, you name it, we can read it. Don't feel like you have to read every book we choose. If you don't like our selection, feel free to sit this one out. Or, if you want to sit out a few months for various other reasons, not a problem.

This is YOUR book group. Everyone has a say so in what they want to read by picking out a few titles themselves. At the same time, you also get a little bit of choice and opinion in the voting each cycle.

If you want to receive group notifications about voting and winning titles, make sure to sign your name on the thread about wanting to receive notifications.
