The only times I've been invited to join formal book clubs, I declined because of the books they read, i.e., serious nonfiction. When I read for leisure, I'm looking for entertainment.Joan Reeveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17622809465767116747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-8526745038096552202019-05-24T20:50:57.885-05:002019-05-24T20:50:57.885-05:00You can make ti whatever you like.

Books I wish I'd read.

We have very different lives, but over the years the book discussions have formed strong friendships. Maybe look for a club of acquaintancs and see where it goes.<br />Judy Hudsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12816435741416603737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-78006740413372663572019-05-24T11:18:18.789-05:002019-05-24T11:18:18.789-05:00Nicw to have that safe place.

Great to hear how much you get out of yours. kathleen Lawlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17791153368022534856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-57004325926222015542019-05-24T10:34:48.891-05:002019-05-24T10:34:48.891-05:00I've never been in a book club either. I alway...I've never been in a book club either. I always looked at most of the book as too serious. I read for mostly escapism although I have read more serious themed books and enjoyed them. So saying that, maybe a once in a while book club would work for me. Your closeness of your members is something we'd all love.Nora LeDuchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15111518752602850802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-88169556662521737972019-05-24T08:24:56.711-05:002019-05-24T08:24:56.711-05:00I would love the idea of getting together to discu...I would love the idea of getting together to discuss books.

Hopefully, it will happen sometime, especially if there is wine involved.
