Some people look to October for Halloween and spooky stuff. Me? I'm a coward so what I look forward to this month is the release of the Women's National Book Association Great Group Reads list. The list is always phenomenal and this year is no different. The included books are perfect for book clubs. They contain issues that we're already talking about right now and will be for a long time to come. They're well written and engaging, fiction and memoir. I've read them all and I recommend them for sure. (Full disclosure, I'm the Great Group Reads Chair so this is very much my baby although my committee chooses the books so it's not just a personal passion project.) All books can be bought through your local independent bookstore or online through
Bookshop as well as from all other in person and online sources. Read one or two (or all) of these and let me know what you think.
What a great thing to be a part of. I’ve never heard of it (probably because I’m not in the US) I’ll have to check out some of these suggestions though.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your service! Since my book club is heavily reliant on the library I'm going back two years to see if I want to recommend any of those. Although during the pandemic we've been running with cosy mysteries and the like...
