If you are up for the idea, how would you like to see something like that structured? I read a lot and would love to discuss.

I just noticed that the thread with the book selection is pinned on the sidebar. But the discussion isn't anywhere.

It is hard to get the controls midflight, and it's normal to lose some context. It would be really nice if the club run with fixed dates, pinned threads, etc.

Also, will there be a vote for the next book or are we going down the list (Children of time)? If we are going down the list, it may be good to put a limit on it and do another round of book selection later.

I'm up for whatever you guys like. But I think it makes sense to open a nomination thread then vote on the top 5 or 10 or something like that.
