As I mentioned before, I recently joined the BBBC (Bujo Buddies Book Club) run by Jess (known as JashiiCorrin over on YouTube) to inspire and motivate myself a bit more when it comes to reading and book related things. I’ve never been a part of a book community before, and so far it has been lovely. I participated in my first book club meeting, and had a lot of fun discussing the read.
There are also challenges and read-a-thons that happen throughout the year, one of which is called ‘A Year of Goober‘ which is sort of like a new take on reading bingo. Ghosty Goober is the name of a ghost mascot the group uses, and basically each month you have the choice between two prompts, which are also tied to two types of flowers. Each month you build a bouquet of flowers up, depending on your monthly reading choices. The video I linked goes into resources available and how to sign up if you’re interested. I’ll be adding this to my reading journal, so I’ll share my progress here once I get that up and running.
I didn’t intend on getting so involved with the reading club once I joined, but I’m having a good time and it’s really nice to be surrounded by a possitive non toxic community who have similar interests. Even if we do spend a lot of time defending differences in opinion about books, there’s room for every sort of reader.
