By Maryann Yin 

Fates & Furies Cover (GalleyCat)Last year, B.J. Novak and Dev Flaherty introduced the world to The List App. Soon, app users will be able to take part in a book club.

Lauren Groff’s novel Fates and Furies has been selected as the inaugural title. Participants will be reading this book from March 7 to April 3. Penguin Random House published the hardcover print edition of the book back in September 2015.

Novak had this statement in the press release: “I’ve been so happy to see such a passionate literary community forming on The List App. Fates and Furies has been highly recommended to me, and its combination of pleasure and substance makes it sound like a perfect choice for our community. We all keep running lists in our head when we read a good book: our thoughts, questions, reactions, favorite lines. I think it will be a fascinating way for people to be able to share a reading experience.”
