I've started a book club hashtag master list, because I'm a busybody. Feel free to let me know about any hashtags you know of that I've missed or that you want to start up! Also let me know if you want your handle to be associated with a certain hashtag, as its leader/organizer. #sffbookclub #wicdivclub
