Joining a book club can be a great way to discover new books, engage in thoughtful discussions, and connect with fellow book lovers. Plus, they offer a variety of benefits, including Enhanced Reading Experience, Social Connection, Exposure to New Genres and Authors, Improved Communication Skills, Mental Stimulation, Accountability, Fun and Enjoyment, and Personal Growth.

At the Huntington Public Library, we strive to offer an enjoyable experience for our book club members by following a flexible monthly/bi-monthly schedule and providing a relaxed and informal setting for our meetings and discussions. It is our hope that doing so will foster a love of reading and create opportunities for building lasting friendships.

 

We Create a Welcoming Atmosphere by encouraging members to share their thoughts freely and respect different opinions. A friendly and open environment will help everyone feel comfortable.

 

We Rotate Book Selection by having members take turns choosing the book to ensure a variety of genres and authors, keeping the reading list diverse and interesting.

 

We Share Personal Connections related to the book’s themes which can deepen the discussion and help members connect on a more personal level.
