                                                       BOOK CLUB GUIDELINES 

There are a few things members should keep in mind as we discuss our book selections on the public forum of Twitter.

* The first rule of YMBC is not to talk about the ending! I know this should go without saying but this also means no spoilers. So basically don't give away the killers name or mention who the heroine hooks up with in the end.

* Shameless self-promotion is just bad Twitter party etiquette! If you have a book review that you would like to share then please leave this tweet until the end of our book club chat. The same consideration should be used if you wish to talk to the author about your writing. Leave this sort of discussion until after our chat time is up.

* This tip should be obvious but members should refrain from making derogatory comments about the author or slamming the book outright. If you didn't like the book then just saying the book wasn't for you or not your genre, is quite enough to get your point across. Not all books are for everyone so we should all keep this in mind and respect other readers' opinions. 

* RTing of book draw tweets is highly recommended and increases your chance at getting a free book from the sponsor and automatically enters you into the draw for our next book club selection. So tweet away book club members!

* If you have any more book club suggestions just send them to me in a DM my book club friend! @YMCbookalicious
