Book Club

When people here I’m in a book club they often thing of this highly sophisticated setup where we are all sipping wine and expounding on the hidden literary meaning that the pages of the books we read contain.

The truth is, it’s a bunch of people who meet every month and usually talk about everything except the book for most of the two hours. We can’t help it! Books spark very interesting discussions especially the ones with sex inside.

I often tell people, if you want to join come see if you comfortable first! (Even if you havent read the book as yet.) Things can get crazy for people who are not used to it. One person says what they think then everyone chimes in. There isn’t a set order to how we discuss the books.

Forming a book club isn’t hard. Find a bunch of people who like to read. First, plan when you will meet, pick your books and you have a book club.

For us, a member will choose a book. They must have a copy they are willing to lend, that book is then loaned around to the members who read it. Sometimes we might pick a book based on the fact that some of us have copies. I find that books that have a PDF or are online are good because you don’t have to circulate the copy.

You don’t have to be literature graduate or professional critics. Once you love reading, you can have a book club, or join ours!
