I was wondering... what’s a personal book nook master?"

Hi. A Personal book nook is basically a place where you can chat with fellow readers and talk anything you want. The position for the mod who’ll manage book books is the personal book nook master. :)

Nitya ♡ wrote: "Oh! Thanks!

So, their job would be making books?"

They would be making book nooks according to the requests! So if someone requests a book nook, their job would be to to make threads for that person, and help in keeping the conversations going on the nook. :)

Hi! I don’t actually think there’s such an option.
We are planning on doing only weekly announcements on Sundays, so it will be less of an issue. :)

I sent it out yesterday as I had some important announcements to make.

Hello, sorry if this is a dumb question, but for the book of the month is there a discussion board for it? I just can't seem to find it if there is one, and I would like to know where we can talk about it :)
Specifically I'll be joining in reading The Cruel Prince. And if there is any timeline or rules for discussing it. Thank you!

Hello, not a dumb question at all. :)
Yes, we do have a discussion board!

The cruel prince-https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Crooked Kingdom-https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

In case you ever have difficulty finding it in the future, it will be under the 'BOTM' folder here-https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...

Hi, just a quick question. How do the elimination games work? Like, how do you choose who to eliminate or why do the points change all of a sudden or why is there an asterisk beside a name?

[Lorelei, Literary Lorelei {on hiatus}]

Hi Carol!

So for the elimination games, you are picking your least favorite character and taking two points away from them, and adding them to your favorite character's point count. We have ones for all different book series. The asterisks show which characters have had their point counts changed

Ex:
Neville: 42*
Hermione: 40
Ginny: 38*
Ron: 40
Harry: 40

And how do I know when to add an asterisk?

When you knock off points from one character and add one to another, you put an asterisk.


For eg it was this-

Neville: 42*
Hermione: 40
Ginny: 38*
Ron: 40
Harry: 40


And now it’s my turn, so I decide which character I want to give points to and which to knock off.

So I will change according to my wish.


Neville: 44*
Hermione: 40
Ginny: 38
Ron: 40
Harry: 38*

I took 2 points from Harry and added it to Neville. Thus the asterisk.

The asterisk is only to make it easier for the next person to notice where the points change. You can also bold/underline/ italics etc.

Hope this was clear. Feel free to ask more questions. :)

[Carol LB]

thankss everything clear

Not yet. Do you want me to add one?
If you want a particular manga discussion then I’ll put it in that folder, but if you just want a normal discussion on manga in general then I’ll put it in the general discussions folder. Let me know. :)
