Manuel, I'm new to goodreads. It appears that this group chooses a book each month and then comments on the book throughout the month. How does one have a "discussion?" Sorry for such elementary questions -- but I couldn't find any page that explains how to participate in a digital club. Thanks for steering me in the right direction. Marcia Whitney-Schenck (Chicago)

On the 15th of every month we make a voting poll where each member can vote for up to two books in a list of 15 candidates. The book with most votes is chosen to be read on the following month. On the first of every month, one of the moderators proposes a set of questions to be discussed while reading the book of the month. Every member can take part in the discussions by writing comments, and even add additional questions if they consider it advisable.

I have written a Y.A. novel titled The Orange Dragon Bowl that is pro-Catholic, pro-life, pro-family, pro-tradition, and pro-virtue that has already gotten nine 5-star reviews, and one 4-star. Honestly, people's enthusiasm for the book has surprised me. Regardless, I'm hoping to gain further interest in the book among Catholics. Perhaps you could help?

Hi, Manuel! I am wondering if the Catholic Book Club would like to vote on my new book as a possible read this summer? I am a debut author of a book of short stories titles "King of the Lake and Other Stories." These are 9 short stories. I would be pleased and honored if the Club chose this book.

I'm new to how goodreads works. While looking around I looked over your resume; it is impressive. I had a career in electronics, computer, telecommunication and solar energy. My current WIP deals with the misconception that solar energy will solve every thing. Sort of like the wind turbines, some are already at the end of their life cycle. Do you think that AI will control. most elections going forward?
