How does one even find a book club nowadays? I didn't realise they still exist.

My friends made one during COVID 🙂. We meet weekly. The first hour is basically group therapy and catch up, the second hour we talk about the book. We are now spread across three states and it gives us an excuse to get together via video chat regularly.

One friend and I started a book-club-of-two at the beginning of the pandemic. We meet twice a week on FaceTime, and same for us :

We are still going strong, and we have read so many books.

I've had the same convo in our bookclub about our SOs. One would be down to a book club, the other five absolutely would not. You are a special breed and I hope you find your people. Why don't you ask here? Maybe you can some new friends. 🙂

I have been in a book club for over 15 years. We started with around 12 women and are now down to 7. We meet in person once a month, usually at a restaurant…we socialize for about 30 minutes and then discuss the book. Whoever chose the book has to lead the discussion. It’s fun!
