Book Club Planner Spreadsheet, Book Club Meeting Schedule, Host Rotation Member Tracker Book Picks Voting, Excel Google Sheets

Book club planner spreadsheet in XLSX format. Nobody should have to remember whose turn it is to host, so this counts it.

You type in one tab and everything else fills itself in. Type your members once; every time you add a meeting with a host’s name, the Members tab updates that person’s hosting count. Sort by it and the next host is at the top — no arguments, and nobody quietly hosting half the year.

WHAT’S INSIDE — 4 TABS

1. ✓ Meetings — 60 rows: date, book, author, host, where, discussion lead and pages. Days away and a done, passed or upcoming status work themselves out, and the sheet suggests your next date from how often you meet.
2. ✓ Members — 30 rows. Names and contacts you type; times hosted and times led counted straight out of the calendar, kept separate because hosting is the room and leading is the reading.
3. ✓ Book Picks — 50 rows. Every nomination with its votes, its status, its club rating out of five, and a column that checks whether it already has a date on the calendar.
4. ✓ Read Me First — books finished, meetings still to come, active members, how many nominations have no date yet, and the club’s average rating.

KEY FEATURES ✓ Hosting turns count themselves out of the meeting calendar. ✓ Picking books without an argument: collect nominations all month, vote once, sort by votes. Ten seconds of voting beats reading whatever the loudest person read last. ✓ Locked formulas. Grey cells are protected, yellow cells are yours, no password is set — which matters in a file several people open. ✓ If you import a converted copy into Google Sheets, verify key totals before sharing it with the club. ✓ 5-page quickstart PDF included.

PERFECT FOR book club organisers and hosts, reading groups, library and workplace clubs, and anyone who inherited the spreadsheet nobody else wanted.
