How can we make the club more welcoming to you?
I'm fine with the way it is.
i just joined so I have to waive this vote for now
(write-in)
I'd read more if there were more diverse selections.
I'd participate more if there were other ways to contribute than just discussing the merits of the books.
I'd read more if there were more diverse moderators.
I'd participate more if my children were encouraged to contribute.
I'd like to see a few more clubs, maybe for nonfiction and for graphic novels
