RE: My Steemit Failures #1: Lessons Learned from Trying & Failing to Start a Book Club on Steem
I'd totally join a book club here on Steemit :). So no more Page Dwellers? Have you heard of anyone else starting one?
No more Page Dwellers, sorry! It was fun while it lasted... There was one other book club on Steemit by @the-alien and @neilstrauss, but neither of them have posted about it in many months :-/
Darn! Oh well. I'll keep my eye out. I can only read so many romance novels before I feel like I need something with way more substance, haha :) My problem is, I love reading but there are so many books out there I think might be awesome that I just freeze and don't commit to any. Book stores have always been a problem for me :D
Dude you are saying exactly how I feel too! The books are endless, I wish I could read them all.
There's lots of awesome stuff beyond the romance novels. Or you could find one that is both a romance novel AND has other depth to it. You ever read Jane Eyre? It's one of my favorite classic books.
I haven't read Jane Eyre... I've gone the lazy route, though, and have seen a movie version of it. I wasn't really attracted to the story line at all which is why I decided to skip the book but knowing it was a classic I felt like I at least had to experience it one way or another. Probably a mistake since I didn't enjoy the movie! Oh well.
The idea of a book club totally appeals to me because most of the time I get to have someone else choose for me and I don't have to go through the pain of bookstore syndrome :D I've read some pretty good books that way.
