Please read through all the rules before filling out your form!

How does it work?

- Every month, you must read a minimum of six chapters of any book of your choice.

- You must comment at least twice on each chapter OR leave one comment at the end that is at least two full sentences.

- Emojis or plain reactions like 'haha' or 'lol' are welcome but not counted toward the two comments.

- After reading, you must log the chapters you have read, voted, and commented on under your name in the month's list (more on logging below).

- At the end of the month, you must count the total number of points you have amassed. This will determine the category you will be placed in the following month.

What do I read?

- There are no assignments in this club. You are free to choose any book(s) that interests you.

- Though you must read a minimum of six chapters, it does not have to be six chapters of the same book. You can read one chapter from six books, two from one and four from another, or however else you wish to divide your time.

- Each month will show the list of members divided by category. Please note that even when an author has a specific book listed, you are allowed to read any book by the author for the same number of points.

- If you are underage, it is your own responsibility to avoid books marked as mature.

- You are not expected to read any book that is potentially triggering to you. Please note that you as a reader are responsible for avoiding any stories that may be triggering.

What can I submit?

- We allow books of any length, genre, or maturity level as long as they follow the Wattpad Content Guidelines. Mature stories must be marked as mature and we ask that you clearly outline any potential triggers in an author's note or your description.

- The title you pick in the form will be the general story you guide readers toward but they are still allowed to read any of your stories for points.

- You can change your story at the start of each month if you wish. Just contact any mod with the new title and genre.

- If you don't want to pick a specific book, you can also opt for 'any book' and submit a general genre you write it.

Does my book have to be in English?
Yes, we only allow books written primarily in English.

Does my book have to be complete or follow an updating schedule?
Books do not have to be completed nor follow any updating schedule. However, please note that some readers will gravitate towards completed or regularly updated books.

Does my book have to be lgbt+ to qualify for this club?
No, any books are welcome to join this club. However, please note that the majority of readers will gravitate towards queer stories.

What kind of comments can I leave?

- This bookclub is not centred around critique! First and foremost, this is a community effort intended to help you find books that you enjoy and to connect with other writers.

- Some writers may ask for constructive criticism in which case helpful feedback is welcome but not compulsory. Please ask the author if they want to be corrected on typos/mistakes or given critique BEFORE doing so.
