Received my book thank you around 1st October :-) How often will books be offered the bookclub members (quarterly?). Have just started the book. Any easy read but looks interesting.

I think Neil's suggestion is sensible, if you are writing a review that contains spoilers, just be very clear within the review where you are about to reveal them with a nice big SPOILERS alert at the start of the paragraph.

It's unlikely that people will all finish the book at the same time and there is no deadline for adding a review, so please feel free to add your review at any time.

Thanks

Maybe slower readers could stay away from the review until they submit their own. Or perhaops write as:

Item 1
Item 2...
Item n
WARNING
Spoiler
denument

Perhaps

Mine arrived yesterday as well.

How long should we wait until we put up a review? It wouldn't be right to 'spoil' the story for slower readers.

A bit hard to get it to you by 18th Sept when I didn't get the newsletter until yesterday the 23rd.

Hi Peter,

The 50 books for this month have already been allocated, but we will announce a new title on 30th September. If you would like to be sent the new book all you have to do is send us a message (just hover over our profile picture and you'll see a button that says 'send message') and send us your address so that we can post the book to you.

Hi everyone,

We would like to apologise for the delay on some of the newsletter emails that went out after the closing date for book club. We had extended the closing date to Friday 20th September but then had some network issues on Friday that meant our emails stopped sending.
The emails restarted over the weekend and that is why some people have received the email after the closing date. However, we will be announcing a new book title on the 30th of September and then on the 30th of every month, so there will be lots of chances to get a free book.

Thanks

The Book Club Team
