I don't see how what I'm proposing works against that at all, but ok.
Ah ok. It's just that people don't participate when "their" book doesn't get picked and that number gets winnowed down further due to people's real life stuff. All I'm saying is, if we loosen it up a bit and just do a thing where we talk about books, maybe we can still get people to talk about and share books while still having it be a tag on hubski.
I'd be down with reading a classic. I think a lot of people could swing that. But I agree that most times it fizzles out and it ends up a handful of us discussing. Still, what's wrong with that? Worse case scenario only a few of us read it.
I'm with you on that. Let's think on it and perhaps consider what has made the sic-fi book club work better than the original bc.
