A community on Slack where book lovers around the world are coming together to discuss what they’re reading. Each book has its own Slack channel, so it’s easy to find other readers, share thoughts and questions, or just sit back and follow the conversation.

Great idea! Is there any plan to create public events for book discussion (Zoom calls etc.) for books that have enough readers? Or will groups in Slack self organize discussion themselves? If there will be events I'd love to add them to https://www.quarantinetogether.c..., but in the mean time I'll add this as one of the wonderful communities people should join 🤗

Yes, @adanguyenx, we're open to doing Zoom calls for various books. Each book has it's own channel (e.g., #book-the-three-body-problem is where we're discussing that particular book). So we can do book-level Zoom calls if enough people are interested or we can use the general-chat area to discuss interest in a community-wide Zoom.

Timely project while we're all WFH (or should I say, RFH 🥁). I'm currently reading The Courage to be Happy, the book following The Courage to be Disliked (one of my favorites).

@rrhoover I'm currently reading Empires of Light on recommendation from @jasoncrawford. It's about Edison, Tesla, and Westinghouse and their race to electrify the world.

As book lovers, we at Highlighter have spent years building tools and communities for readers like us. The idea for a “Self-Quarantine Book Club” actually came from @andrewchen, who tweeted about the concept recently and mentioned us as a team that might naturally build it. We thought this would be a great way to encourage people to stay at home—and to create more human connections around the books we're all reading while we’re stuck inside. :) Self-Quarantine Book Club is a gathering place for readers. It's a new kind of open book club where you can find a community for any book you’re reading and connect with other people reading the same thing. It's casual, fun, and global. We'd love to have you join us!
