FAQ:

How does this book club work?
Themed book clubs works in that you pick a book that fits the theme, and come prepared to give your rating and tell us about it. Even if you didn't finish, that's okay! It's mostly a chill hangout.
Can I host?
You can host if you have attended at least one book club in-person, which will be verified against attendance records.
Why is the list limited to 15 participants?
It is limited to 15 to ensure a smooth conversation where everyone has an opportunity to speak. We do sometimes have more than 15 signed up, as we do expect some people to have last minute conflicts. Please read the book even if you are on the waitlist, as people's RSVPs do change.

New: We have enacted a new no-show and late cancelation policy to ensure equitable access to our book club.
Members who no-show without notice or fail to provide at least 3 hours notice before cancelling twice in a row will receive a warning. After three no-shows/late cancellations, members will be moved to the waitlist for future events.
