Thriller

[close] A themed book club that meets on Zoom every second Saturday, and in person, at a different location, once a year. The bookclub was founded in 2018, in the land of the morning calm, by veterans and U.S. federal employees working in South Korea. Follow us on Instagram @sotmcbookclub

[close] Click HERE for the latest group announcements. "It reminded me of ____ but in space." "I read ____ in high school, and actually liked it." "It's like a cross between ____ and ____ with a little Harry Potter thrown in." "YOU'VE NEVER READ ____?!?" You know the drill. Your friends reference it, your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/"sort of thing?" raves about it, even your favorite movies quote it, or it IS your favorite movie but you've never read the book. This group is for those of us for whom one of the following may apply... - we have finally developed a taste for reading and are severely behind on classics; - we kindaaa, sortaaa, but actually slept through English class in high school and used Sparknotes/Hollywood remakes to write our book reports; - we buy a book that everyone is talking about and it sits on our shelf, and sits there... and sits there; - we've heard the hype and are finally getting around to reading the actual book; - we want to expand our horizons beyond the single genre we usually read and want to do so with some time-tested material; - we just plain old want to get everyone off our backs for not having read _____. Every month we'll choose three books to read: 1) a classic (that everyone has probably read but us), 2) a "modern" classic or popular book that everyone is talking about, and 3) a bookshelf catch-up in which we choose a book the group has already read to catch-up with other members.

[close] Önemli not: İçerikleri görüntüleyebilmek ve gruba tam olarak dahil olabilmek için Goodreads’e hem masaüstü web sitesinden hem de mobil cihazlarda “masaüstü web sitesi” seçeneğini kullanarak giriş yapılması gerekmektedir. Biz, kitaplar hakkında konuşmayı, karakterlere gereğinden fazla bağlanmayı ve okuduğumuz hikâyeleri uzun uzun tartışmayı seven birkaç okuruz. Bu kulübü de aynı ilgileri paylaşan insanlarla bir araya gelmek için kurduk. Fantastik dünyalarda kaybolmayı, romantik hikâyelerde duygulanmayı, dark academia’nın gizemli atmosferine kapılmayı, distopyaların düşündüren taraflarını keşfetmeyi ve bazen de Sally Rooney tarzı çağdaş, karakter odaklı romanlara dalmayı seviyoruz. Bu yüzden kulübümüzde tek bir türe bağlı kalmak yerine farklı türlerden kitaplar okuyacağız. Burada amaç sadece kitap bitirmek değil; okuduklarımız üzerine sohbet etmek, farklı yorumlar duymak, favori alıntılarımızı paylaşmak ve yeni kitaplar keşfetmek. İster yıllardır düzenli okuyan biri olun, ister yeniden okuma alışkanlığı kazanmaya çalışıyor olun, aramıza katılabilirsiniz. Bir sonraki favori kitabınızı belki de burada bulacaksınız.
