Club Rules

  • One vote per round per person.
  • Votes can be changed until the round is locked, so persuasion campaigns are entirely valid.
  • Voting is done with a Ranked Choice Vote, and tallied via the Schulze Method each round. Ranks (dolphins) will carry between rounds, but are not points.
  • Books that receive low interest over 3 consecutive voting rounds may be removed from the ballot.
  • Any Book may be suggested - even if removed previously!
  • When suggested, an explanation must be given as to "Why We Should Read This". Failure to do so will mean the Book isn't added to the ballot.
  • Only one Book per Author can be on the ballot at a time.
  • An Author that has been Previously Read can be suggested again only after a 12-month waiting period.
  • When a Book from a Series is suggested, only the First Book will be entertained unless it was previously read in this Book Club.
