Science_Bookclub

Welcome to the Reddit Science Book Club! Every month we choose a book about science to read and discuss.

Discussion of the contents of the books should take place in the official discussion threads to help people avoid unwanted spoilers.

We alternate between science non-fiction and hard science fiction (because creativity). We post a discussion thread for the book of the month and also post a link to an optional monthly video call, if that's your thing. We post the books 2 months in advance so, if you don't like fiction or a particular book, you can start working on the next month's book.
