Are there BookTok-specific book clubs?
BookTok-specific book clubs were not widespread, but the concept was starting to gain traction. Book clubs on TikTok, referred to as "BookTok Book Clubs," were being formed by BookTok creators and book enthusiasts to read and discuss books together.
BookTok book clubs typically work as follows:
- Book Selection: The BookTok book club selects a book to read for a specific period, such as a month or a few weeks. The book selection may be made through polls, voting, or discussions within the book club community.
- Reading Schedule: Members of the book club follow a reading schedule, which could involve reading specific chapters or portions of the book each week.
- Discussion and Engagement: Throughout the reading period, members engage with the book through comments, likes, and discussions on TikTok. They may create videos to share their thoughts, reactions, and favorite quotes.
- Live Discussions: Some BookTok book clubs may also host live discussions or Q&A sessions where members can interact directly with each other and discuss the book in real-time.
- Hashtags: Book club participants may use a specific hashtag to identify their book club-related content and connect with others who are reading the same book.
