Save a place in the conversation
Book club signup for one shared discussion
When the whole club meets together, there is no need for a list of time slots. Share the book, the date, and the meeting place, then let readers say they are coming.
Free to create · Editable before sharing · No guest accounts

One shared meeting. One easy reply.
This example is a single shared meeting with eighteen readers planning to attend. The starter uses RSVP mode with no slots. You choose the actual date and any overall room limit.

Readers planning to come
One reply per reader in this example. Your new RSVP starts empty; add a total attendee limit if your room needs one.
Example only. Your new event starts with no signups. Choose real dates and review the settings before publishing.
Included in this starter
- Public attendee names hidden
- A simple attendance reply
- Guest reminders enabled
Keep the useful structure. Change the details.
Edit the wording, dates, and limits in the event builder.
Keep the meeting easy to join
Put the book and the welcome in one place.
A regular group still benefits from a complete invitation. New readers should be able to understand the plan without looking through last month's messages.
How much to read
Name the book and chapters. Explain whether readers are welcome if they have not finished, so the invitation does not leave that question hanging.
Who is hosting
Name the host in the description if appropriate and share a practical contact route. Confirm any private address through the channel your group uses.
What changes next month
Treat book selection, host rotation, and attendance as different decisions. Review all three when copying the next event.
From an example to your event
Make this signup your own.
- 1
Settle the book and date
Use your usual discussion or a separate poll to choose. Replace the sample event title with the book or meeting name.
- 2
Describe the shared meeting
Add the date, timezone, place, reading amount, and any instructions for finding the room. Add an attendee limit if seating is restricted.
- 3
Invite useful discussion notes
The optional comment asks what readers would like to discuss. Keep public names hidden or deliberately choose another visibility setting.
- 4
Prepare the next meeting separately
Duplicate the event for a new date and review the book, host, and location. Organization recurring series create separate events and still need their details reviewed.
Beyond the signup list
A small plan for a smoother day.
Use these example notes to think through the work before, during, and after your event.
While deciding
Ask for preferences
Use a poll for candidate books or dates. Close the decision before asking for a final attendance reply.
Before the meeting
Prepare for the actual group
Use the RSVP count for seating and review the optional discussion suggestions.
For next time
Confirm the next host
Update the copied event's book, date, and venue. Previous readers do not automatically RSVP again.

A few practical questions
Before you share your signup
How is this different from the reading-group template?
Can we vote for the next book?
Will it rotate hosts automatically?
A useful place to start
