Let's Choose A Book (Group Read #3)

[Ray]

OK, time to choose our next group read!

As we discussed, we’ll be picking from the books mentioned during our last discussion. I’ve listed them here so you don’t have to go back and dig through the chat:

The Spellshop

The House in the Cerulean Sea

Trickster's Choice

The Mists of Avalon

A Dark and Drowning Tide

For She Is Wrath

Other suggestions are welcome. Whatever doesn't get picked will be kept on the list for next time.

Also, there was a suggestion made to divide the chosen book into sections and have different discussion post for each part. Let me know if you want to try that this time around.

As before, the discussion will stay open until we’ve all agreed on which book to read next and the time frame for reading it.

I know I've sung the praise of it enough, but The House in the Cerulean Sea is fantastic and would highly recommend.

[Madelyn]

I think that all these books are intriguing enough after looking through all of them. So if you guys have more of an opinion, I would easily go with it.

[LA]

Newly joined the group! All of the recommendations sound really interesting, especially The dark and downing tide and For she is wrath. If it's alright I'd like to recommend two books on the side!
- Water Moon by Samantha Sotto Yambao
- Don't Let the Forest In by C.G. Drews

Hey guys, I could make a poll and we can read whichever book gets the most votes. What do you think?

Yes! A poll sounds like a great idea.

[Stephen]

Sounds good to me!

[Ray]

I made the poll. Hopefully it will open tomorrow. It's my first time making one 😅

[Madelyn]

I haven’t seen the poll yet. Has it opened?

It closed yesterday. Sorry you didnt get to vote. 🙁
The options are the same ones in my first comment on this thread. I can open it back if you'd like.

Otherwise, The House in The Cerulean Sea won with 2/3 votes.

[Madelyn]

I honestly didn’t care much, they were all good options :)

[Ray]

Ok great 🙂

So the next group read will be The House in The Cerulean Sea. I'm thinking we could let this one run for three (3) weeks. I'm open for suggestions. What do you guys think?

[Madelyn]

I’m a very fast reader so three weeks sounds fine with me. Anyone have a preference?

[Stephen]

Works for me, I've already read it haha. Currently reading the sequel, Somewhere Beyond the Sea, now.

[Blue Ghost]

Should work for me! I got busy and slowed down on reading for a bit there, but I'm guiding myself back into the habit of reading regularly.

[Rachel]

Perfect, sorry for being so "in & out" of the book club threads, but I will start reading "The House in The Cerulean Sea" right away! Thank you!
