Regular Meetups
Run a book club that doesn’t fizzle out
Picking the book, setting the date and remembering whose house it’s at. Plynr keeps your book club organised, so you can get on with the reading. Or the wine.
Sound familiar?
Choosing the next book
Everyone has a suggestion and nobody wants to be the one who decides.
Keeping the date
Monthly meetups drift when there’s no set plan.
Whose house is it at?
Rotating hosts is fair, but tracking it is a job of its own.
How to plan it in Plynr
1
Vote on the next book
Send a Poll with a few picks. Everyone votes, and the winner goes into your Plyn.
2
Set up a recurring Quick Plyn
Set it to repeat monthly, with the host and address for each meetup.
3
Keep the conversation going
Chat inside the Plyn between meetups, and let reminders nudge everyone to finish the book.
4
Relive it afterwards
Once it’s done, it becomes a Past Plyn. Everyone adds their photos, and you can keep private notes of your favourite books.
Questions
How often should a book club meet?
Once a month is most common. It gives everyone enough time to finish the book.
How do you choose a book club book?
Shortlist a few books and let everyone vote with a Poll, or take turns choosing.
How many people should be in a book club?
Six to twelve is a good size. Enough for a lively chat, but small enough that everyone gets a say.
What if not everyone finishes the book?
That’s normal. Many book clubs are as much about catching up as the book itself.
That book club you keep saying you’ll start?
Just send a Plyn. Free on iPhone and Android.
