I'm thinking of arranging a virtual nonfiction book club wherein everyone participating reads a *different* book relevant to a common topic

Having hit 200+ members, we're splitting into several groups covering different ground. This month we're covering three topics: 1) World-building (fiction, experiential, city/state planning, etc.) 2) Conspiracy theories 3) Education There's still time to join :)

discord unifies text and video chats well fwiw

Is it/can it be useful for slightly longer-form thoughts and backward browsing? I haven't used it much; basically think of it as super feature-rich realtime chat, which is maybe slightly too ephemeral for what I'm hoping to do

This is perfect! I have "Start online book club" on my to-do list for months - how can I help you set this up?

Yeah Slack really focuses on the messaging aspects of it and feels more 'book-club'-ey. Discord might be more functional because of built in voice/video which works pretty seamlessly, but it feels pretty game-y.

Hangouts Chat no, Video maybe. +1 to Discord. I'd just create one server and then make a channel per topic.
