SEPTEMBER is home to Banned Books Week, so we will be reading The Perks of Being A Wallflower, a coming-of-age epistolary novel written by STEPHEN CHBOSKY. What are you waiting for? Go forth and read!
Things You Need To Know For This Month
- Read the book! You know you want to.
- We will be discussing up to the February 8th entry in the MID-MONTH DISCUSSION JOURNAL, which I will be posting through CRLiterature on MONDAY, September 15th. Keep an eye out!
- Instead of an END OF THE MONTH CHAT, we will have and END OF THE MONTH DISCUSSION JOURNAL. It will be like the mid-month journal, but at the end of the month. This way, it's easy for you to participate no matter what time zone you live in! I'll be posting that through CRLiterature on SUNDAY, September 28th. PinkyMcCoversong and I will moderate.
- Prizes: We've teamed up with Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers AND Cinco Puntos Press this month, who will be providing our prizes: PLAY ME BACKWARDS by Adam Selzer and GABI, A GIRL IN PIECES by Isabel Quintero. Copies of each book will also be placed in the end of the year prize basket.
- How exactly do you win prizes? Participate! Commenting on the discussion journals, responding to other deviant's comments, posting fan art, or posting reviews of the novel are ways to earn points (not dA points)! If you are posting fan art or a review, please be sure to note CRLiterature with the title: BOOK CLUB PARTICIPATION. We give out points for each of the criteria and the deviant with the most points at the end of the month wins the prize!
- If you finish early, you can start the next book!
