Have you ever been part of a book club? It could be virtual or real. It could be in your church, your family group, a school group, or at the local library. Not in one currently? Why not start a book club?

A book club does not have to be a set number of people. There can be two people or ten. You don't want to alone, you also don't want such a large crowd that quality discussion can't be had.

Once you have determined who will be in the club, consider how often you would meet. Most book clubs meet once a month. I have a club with one other person who is an extremely slow reader. We wait to schedule a meeting until she has finished reading. Develop your schedule based on who attends and their limitations.

Where should you meet? Again, this can depend greatly on who attends and how many attend. For my group of two, we choose different restaurants for breakfast. A friend of mine is in a larger group in which they rotate to each member's houses. Take advantage of weather and meet in a park during a warm, summer day.

Now to the topic of which books to read. Most clubs I've heard of or participated in had each member choose a book. In my group, we take turns. In my friend's club, whoever is hosting that month gets to choose the book. Just make sure all are in agreement on what type of books are read.

Do the club virtually or in person, but enjoy talking about books with someone.
