Community Guidelines

Treat every member with kindness and respect. Different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives are welcome here.

Share your opinions openly, listen when others see the story differently, and keep debate focused on the book and ideas—not the person sharing them.

Bullying, harassment, intimidation, threats, targeted personal attacks, or deliberately making another member feel unsafe or unwelcome will not be tolerated.

Do not share another member’s personal information, private conversations, screenshots, photos, or messages outside of the group without their permission.

The official group chat is intended for book discussions, club announcements, meeting information, sharing book-related thoughts, and connecting with other members.

Please keep the chat welcoming and on purpose: no unwanted solicitation, excessive self-promotion, spam, disruptive behavior, or inappropriate content.

Some books may contain mature themes, relationships, intimacy, and sexual content. Members are expected to discuss these topics respectfully and appropriately.

Members are encouraged to participate, but no member is required to speak during every discussion or attend every meeting. We understand that life happens. Participate when you are able and remain respectful of the community.

Members are always welcome to leave Her Book Society if the club is no longer the right fit. Simply notify the club administrator. Your decision to leave will be respected.

Her Book Society reserves the right to remove or deactivate a member who violates these guidelines or whose behavior negatively affects the safety, comfort, or experience of the community.

Depending on the circumstances, a violation may result in a warning, temporary restriction, removal from the group chat, deactivation of membership, or immediate removal from the book club. Serious violations may result in immediate removal without a warning.
