October: National Reading Group Month

1

October is National Reading Group Month sponsored by the Women’s National Book Association.

Reading groups are a great way for people (yes, mostly women) to get together to share their love of reading. It’s a time to socialize, catch up, and discuss some really great books. Today, book clubs have expanded from mommy groups that talk about books during playdates, to genre book clubs, to discussing literary works during happy hour! The challenge is how to choose from all those great books out there!

But for now, enjoy the book club and reading group sites in this post. And if you’re not part of a group, you can often find one at your local bookstore or library. If you don’t have one in your area, start one today!

    I am looking forward to celebrating National Reading Group Month with the three Book Discussion Groups I facilitate at Public Libraries in Nassau County,Long Island, New York.
    I wanted to give all the participants something to remember the month. I had refrigerator magnets designed with the message “I Love My READING GROUP.
