Book Club Traditions!
Start a book club that will last

A book club favorite

'A Gentleman in Moscow' by Amor Towles was a clear reading winner for our group.  If you are looking for a solid read this is the novel for you.  A new television series of the novel coming soon on Showtime starring Ewan McGregor as Count Alexander Rostov.  Always read the book first!

  • Reading another novel from the same author is a must and soon
  • The honorary read gets an extra special celebration with a theme book club, more wine and fun book club ideas

Not sure what genre to read?  Start by asking the group! Have everyone share their favorite genre and then add them all to your future reads.  Historical fiction? Classics?, Biographies?  Mysteries?  New Releases?
​Let all reading voices be heard and in the end a happy book club is  a book club that will stay together for years to come
