You can read some, all, or none of the books. No pressure! Everything is read at your own pace. We just ask you use spoiler tags for spoilers. There is plenty of space to talk about other topics and get to know your fellow readers!

We’re also doing a server wide reading goal where we pool together our numbers and try to reach a yearly goal! We’re already over 8,000 books and our goal for 2023 is to read 10,000 books!

We have a writing channel open to everyone where author Emmeline Duncan does “Shut Up and Write!” sessions every Thursday at 10am PST/1pm EST with additional sessions on Sunday afternoons. If you’re looking for help finding the motivation to write, check it out!

We also have Trivia night every Thursday at 6pm PST/9pm EST!
