Books
One book at a time
MBC reads a single official book at a time. A cycle lasts as long as the book deserves — a month, a quarter, sometimes a whole year.
Master Chimbala curates and recommends the official MBC book and keeps final scheduling authority, while member input and voting genuinely inform what we read next.
A book and a reading cycle are separate things here. The same book can return years later with a different cycle, a different journal and a different community around it.
MBC does not host copyrighted books. Every edition we reference records its rights status explicitly — licensed, openly distributed, external purchase, physical shop, audio, or no digital distribution at all — along with what may be viewed, downloaded, streamed, sold, distributed or embedded.
Every cycle has an MBC Reading Journal: book information, author profile, why it was selected, the schedule, chapter notes, key concepts, reflection questions, discussion prompts, application exercises, quotations, space for your own notes, and one closing question — what will I do differently?
