Why I Think You Should Join our Bookclub IMMEDIATELY!

Bookish discourse does help bring change. But so does actually reading Black and brown books. And that is what we are doing over here. So head on over...Show more

Why I Think You Should Join our Bookclub IMMEDIATELY!

I think it’s safe to say that if you follow me, you are probably already passionate about creating space for Black and brown authors. And while a lot of that comes down to addressing the way the publishing industry operates and hammering away at the systemic barriers at a corporate level, another massive piece is…well...reading Black and brown books.

Which is why I really encourage all of you to come be a part of our book club. Every single month, we get to collectively put our money and marketing power where it matters and show people the importance of reading our voices. And I would love for you to be a part of that.

As you know, I recently moved my book club to my discord. And as Bindery subscribers, whether at a free tier or a paid tier, you not only get access to that book club, but to other exclusive rooms in my discord. I look forward to when Bindery’s website is capable of hosting some of those community features here (and this is coming), but for now, come on over to the discord and engage in some more personal and direct community with me and with other readers.

All you need to do to open up the book club in my discord is sync it to your Bindery, which you can do by going to “my account” in the top right-hand corner, or leftunreadbooks.binderybooks.com/account and clicking “sync discord”. It’ll bring you right into my discord server and automatically assign you an exclusive role that will give you access to the book club and our other bindery-specific chats. 

I know, I know… another app.

Trust me. When you see the amount of community we are having over there, I think you’ll agree that it’s worth it.

I hope to see all of you over there! We are just finishing up House of Frank by Kay Synclaire and will be ending the month with a live zoom event with her next Friday! So make sure you come hang out with us! Also...join today so that you can participate in voting for our February book!

ALSO, just a heads up…. but TOMORROW is the cover release day for Cry, Voidbringer! I will be posting some graphics in my discord tomorrow around 10:30 am CST, so that any of you who want to participate in the cover release can do so around 11 when I post!!! I would love it if those of you with platforms would share that material, and if EVERYONE would engage with our posts and help us get word out to as many people as we reveal the cover and launch our pre-sale campaign!

Thanks, everyone!!!

And please, here is a direct link to the discord. If you can’t figure out how to sync your bindery, just use the link and @ me, and I will come help you!
