Voting is now open to pick the June selection for the #LitsySciFiBookClub #LSFBC. Voting will be open through Tuesday. I checked with my library, and three of these books are available online: All Systems Red, The Fated Sky and Goliath. The other two are not overly pricey on Amazon at 9.99 and 4.99.

Our second #CampLitsy24 book is Butter. We‘ll discuss it after Clear, in the second half of June. Our reading schedule is as follows: we‘ll discuss chapter 1 to 8 on June 22 and chapter 9 to the end on June 29.
Looking forward to the book, I hope it is just as good as Clear, that we will discuss on June 8 and 14!

I‘m looking for a reading plan for Possession and finding poetry everywhere. Had no idea.
Ok, plan idea A:
July 7: chapters 1-5 (102 pages)
July 14: chapters 6-10 (118 pages)
July 21: chapters 11-17 (111 pages)
July 28: chapters 18-21 (114 pages)
August 4: chapters 22-28 (109 pages)
What do you think? This is just a suggestion. I‘m open to what might work better for anyone.
