The intention to start a book club did not exist when I posted this in January 2021. I imagined someone might post a club I could join or simply just comment a few book suggestions. I received multiple comments suggesting starting a club of my own. So, I did. We chose our first book in February of 2021.
Creating a Facebook group is pretty simple and Zoom lets you host free 40 minute meetings so it seemed like a task I could manage. As I write this blog post, the group has read and discussed 15 books! 15 BOOKS! I have friends who have consumed over five times that amount in one year, but I am still thankful I have been able to share my love of reading with old friends and new friends.
I do not have a plan to open up the group to anyone outside of friends or friends of other group members. However, I will share the books we are reading and y’all can follow along with us through blog posts!
We typically meet to discuss the books on the last Sunday of each month, sometimes rolling into the next month. I will post sometime between the 1st and 5th of each month with a summary of the Book Club’s thoughts and the book choice for the following month. You can also find a list of the current and past books under the Book Club menu option on the home page.
Feel free to comment any book suggestions and maybe you will see your book listed as our next pick!
