New Reader Looking for Discussion Group

[NicKSU]

I’m new to the Cosmere and I’m looking for a discussion group or reading group for the Mistborne Era 1 books. I did this with the Wheel of Time series and found a discord group where after each chapter you could read posts and discuss each chapter. Anyone know of a similar setup for Mistborne? Thanks!

There is @Trutharchivist's SPORG group, but that seems to focus on new releases, as far as I am aware. There are many that have used these forums in a similar way, such as (Spoilers at link - especially after first post) Reading MIstborn for the First Time and Mistborn Book 1 is Incredible. Without Spoilers:

• The first one is an example of people posting here after they read <some amount> - 1 or more chapters, or each "Part", etc. Then those of us here may respond to the posts. If you ask questions, you can let us know how you prefer we respond (spoiler free), possibly saying "this will or will not be answered" or answering the question in a spoiler tag, so you can come back later to read the tag or decide if it is a small enough spoiler that you want the answer now. We can even not answer the question directly, but provide hints or things to watch for in the spoiler tag - which you can also decide if you want to read now or wait for later.
• The second example was of similar, but wating until after each book to provide your thoughts, responses, theories and questions - which we can respond in the same way - letting you know if it will be answered, spoiler tagged hints, or spoiler tagged answers.

Alternately, you may check out some of the various Intro Threads (consider making one yourself) to see if there are others new to the forum that also have not yet read MIstborn, and might like to form a reading discussion group (if you post an Intro thread, you can mention in that post that anybody insterested could PM you).

Glad to have you here and hope you enjoy the journey.

Hope that is helpful.

Welcome to the Shard!

Treamayne is right about my reading group being mostly for new releases. It's also pretty much inactive currently.

I'm willing to join in a reading group for Mistborn. I'm not sure it'll work for SPORG mostly because most people there have already read it.

I didn't read any of the threads Treamayne recommended here, though the first seems to be similar to a thread I've seen on Stormlight Archives by one of the members of SPORG which I've enjoyed, I think it might be a good idea to try that out.

Another option, if you prefer discussing specifically with people who didn't read Mistborn yet, is looking around intro threads to see people who didn't read Mistborn yet but want to. Good luck!
