Come share what you're reading! There's no required reading for this book discussion - engage in open discussion about what you are enjoying (or maybe what you wish you would have liked better), what book you cannot stop thinking about, what character you have been inspired by, or what have you been driven to learn more about! Gather some new ideas for your next read, explore a new genre, or connect with other readers and enjoy lively conversation.
We will also recommend ways to find new books, authors and read-a-likes from our collection!
