How Our Book Clubs Work
*Most Book Clubs are still meeting virtually on Zoom for the foreseeable future, but for those starting to meet in-person, you will be required to show proof of vaccination at the door for each meeting and masks must be worn at all times within the store. Thank you for understanding that we're all doing our best to keep ourselves and others safe!*
There are no official sign-ups or fees, but we do ask that you purchase the book from us in order to participate. You can join as many book clubs as you like, or you can hop around! Members will read the book selected in time for its meeting date. Discussions are casual. The list of book clubs currently offered is detailed below; please check our Event Calendar for dates and selections.
