Please help us make Online Book Club even better! Please post suggestions, feedback and ideas for new features. Wild brainstorming and potentially 'crazy ideas' are super-strongly encouraged! :)

For new members (or old members who run into an issue), please make a post in this forum asking any questions you have about using the site and how it works that are not answered in the FAQ. Not only are we happy help you, but also we can use your feedback to make the site better for tomorrow's new member! A lot of the instructions throughout the site and answers in the FAQ are there because someone else pointed out that it wasn't clear before.

I have just set up my account with username and password but not sure where to begin on starting to get books and reviewing them? Are they audible only or do they come in the mail?

Hello and welcome!

Review books are ebooks only.

There are some reimbursed paperback books, but mostly it's Nook, Kindle, epub, and PDF.

If you don't see a book you like. Play around with the website. You will eventually come across one. There is a lot of other things you can do on here. Like trying to win gift cards! Takes a while to get to know everything on here but it's fun!
