Paula’s comments from the Booktalk In PJs group.

Welcome to the Voting for our June book.

I decided to use the topic we pick for December 2021.

So this month's theme is:
Romance / New Adult

Please consider suggesting only books without a Fantasy part (like Evelyn Hugo or Love Hypothesis). Also, it's not important if the main love story is queer or straight. Just suggest books in the Romance Genre that you want to read this summer.
You can write your books on this topic until the 10th of May.

Hello and welcome to the next round with the new principal in our book club.
Here is a little overview:

Because we didn't hold a bookclub meeting in December 2021 but already picked a theme, I decided to use that theme for this round.

11th-12th of May:
Voting Round 1 through a Google Survey

13th-14th of May:
Voting Round 2 if necessary

15th of May:
The winner will be announced

Junel:
Read the book in the tempo that you want to.

The discussion topic is only to be used after you finish the book because there probably will be spoilers in it. If you can, please write in English. This book club is still for training ;)

If you have any questions you can always message the moderator or shoot them a DM on Instagram (@bloggerinthejogger).

This topic is for discussing the Book of the Month. Please only read the comments after you read the book because there will be spoilers on this topic.

Here is the Link for the Voting which ends tomorrow at 1pm!

Here are the book I've picked out:

All of Us Villains
Gearbreakers
The Jasmine Throne
Jade City
The Final Empire
The Inheritance Games
The Unbroken
The City of Brass

These are all the books I've picked out. Sadly my original idea was Enemies to Lovers or 2022 releases but Thalia is a real pain in the ass with English books so a lot of them had reaallllyyyy long delivery times and I don't trust Thalia.

I will send the Google Survey Link tomorrow so that you have enough time to check out the books :D

Welcome to the Voting for our April book.

I forgot to open the topic to I picked some books out for us. There is no specific theme besides the fact that I picked them :D

So this month theme is:
Wishlist Pick

This topic is for discussing the Book of the Month. Please only read the comments after you read the book because there will be spoilers in this topic.

Hello and welcome to the second round with the new principal in our book club.
Here is a little overview:

I forgot to open this topic so I decided to pick some books out instead. You can check them out under the "Voting" Topic in this folder.

11th-12th of March:
Voting Round 1 through a Google Survey

13th-14th of March:
Voting Round 2 if necessary

15th of March:
The winner will be announced

April:
Read the book in the tempo that you want to.

The discussion topic is only to be used after you finish the book because there probably will be spoilers in it. If you can, please write in English. This book club is still for training ;)

If you have any questions you can always message the moderator or shoot them a DM on Instagram (@bloggerinthejogger).

We've entered the next round!
Vote for all the books that you are interested in until 1 pm on the 12th of January!
Here is the link to the survey:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FA...

These are the books I've selected for the next round:
These Witches Don't Burn
Ruinsong
The Midnight Lie
Girls of Paper and Fire
The Winter Duke
The Unspoken Name

These books sadly didn't make it:
A Clash of Steel: A Treasure Island Remix
--> out, because criteria 2&3
Crier's War
--> out, because criteria 4 (delivery time)
A Curse of Roses
--> out, because criteria 2,3
Sweet & Bitter Magic
--> out, because criteria 2
Ghost Wood Song
--> out because criteria 4 (delivery time)
Girls Made of Snow and Glass
--> out because criteria 4 (delivery time)
Belle Révolte
--> out because of criteria 3
Of Fire and Stars
--> out because of criteria 3
The Grimrose Girls
--> out because criteria 4 (delivery time)
She Who Became the Sun
--> out because of criteria 3
Malice
--> out because of criteria 4( epub costs 14,99 and that's to expensive)
These Feathered Flames
--> out because of criteria 2
The Jasmine Throne
--> out because of criteria 4(delivery time)
Queen of Coin and Whispers
--> out because of criteria 3
Dark and Deepest Red
--> out because of criteria 3
The Never Tilting World
--> out because of criteria 3
The Mermaid, the Witch, and the Sea
--> out because of criteria 3
Afterlove
--> out because of criteria 4 (delivery time)

So there is kind of new criteria for selecting the books. Here a the rules:
1.
It has to be possible to buy the mobi and the epub version of the book.
2.
There has to be a print version under 16€ (if this book is reeeeaaallly new maybe I will put it on the list and you can decide for yourself)
3.
There has to be a print and also an ebook version available on Amazon and Thalia. I choose these two retailers because you told me in one of my surveys that these are the ones you buy the most from.
4.
There are other reasons why I will not pick a book for the next round (for example: doesn't fit the theme, reeeaallly bad ratings, problematic author, long delivery time)

I am really sorry if your book does not make it into the next round.

Hey there,
I put the last two books on the list. Fire heart Tiger is a little bit short with only 103 pages and the rest is not really sapphic so sadly I will not put them on our list but maybe they will fit a future theme :D

Note: If found these shelved as sapphic but I will do some deeper research about these in the next days. This list also includes the book that were named by you in the comments. Please have a look at this list before submitting a book so we don't have doubles.

I will look more into them on the 10th and see if they are currently available and how the overall reviews are.

Welcome to the Voting for our February book.

You can propose book ideas for our monthly theme until the 10th of January 2022.

Please look at the ideas that are already posted, so that we don't have duplicates (it makes the work a little bit easier ;))

This month theme is:
Sapphic Fantasy

Please make sure, that the WLW relationships play a little bit more into the story than just as side characters.

I am excited about your book proposals.
