Any decent virtual book club recommendations?

I love reading but never seem to have enough time to devote to it, and I've been wondering for a while now if joining a book club would motivate me to read more. I was in a Goodreads group years ago but they only read horror books, and I like a very eclectic mix of genres so I got bored. Also, the group was huuuuge so it was difficult to keep track of the chat.

I'd love to join (or maybe form?) a club that reads one book a month of varying genres, that maybe meets on zoom and also has a whatsapp chat group going too. Am I asking too much?? Grin

Yes I’d be up for it, certainly. PM me to talk details!

I have been on the look out for one of these lately! I'd love to join if one got created.

A weekend would work best for me. Weekday evenings are a bit chaotic.

I'm in one but read so much I'm happy to be in another!

I would love to join too.

Ooh, lovely! I'll have a look about setting one up, and in the meantime, anyone who wants to join can pm me what time would suit them best and we'll try to find a common ground Grin

This is exciting! Grin

There's the Literary Isolationists Club (set up the Literary Gift Company during the first lockdown) on Facebook.

They 'meet' on a Tuesday evening to discuss books on a particular theme, which changes each week, but they don't all read/discuss the same book.

Would love to join too if there is room.

I would join as well if one was started.
