Book clubs
Start a club or join one, read the same book together and talk about it without spoilers.
A book club is a group of people who read books together. Each club has its Readings (the books you read), a general Chat and its Members.
Creating a club
- Go to Community → Clubs.
- Tap New club.
- Enter the Club name and, if you like, a Description (optional).
- Choose whether it's Public (it shows up in searches and on the books its members read) or private (only members can see it).
- If it's public, choose Who can join: Anyone or Invite only.
- Choose the Language (optional) and tap Create club.
Inviting people and adding readings
Whoever creates the club runs it. From the club's menu they can:
- Invite people, searching by name or @username. The invitation arrives in their notifications.
- Change the Club settings.
- Delete club.
In the Readings tab, tap Add reading and choose the book. Each reading can have Start and End dates, a Reading pace and a status: Upcoming, Active or Finished.
Joining a club
- If you're invited, you'll see it in the Community bell.
- Public clubs show up on the page of the books they're reading, under Clubs reading this book. If they're open to anyone, tap Join.
To leave, open the club's menu → Leave club.
A club reading
Tap a reading and then Join this reading to take part. Inside there are five sections:
- Discussion: comments about the book, spoiler-free. Each comment is tied to the point in the book its author had reached, and you only see comments up to where you've read. If you haven't started yet: "Read a bit more to comment."
- Chat: for everything else.
- Quotes: passages you share.
- Reviews: what participants thought.
- Calendar: the reading's dates and pace.
Common questions
Do I need a paid plan? No, clubs are for everyone.
Do we all need the book in Kevra? For the Discussion to know how far you are, it's best to read it in Kevra: that way comments are filtered by your progress.
