In-Person Book Club

The John C. Fremont Branch is starting an in-person book club for adult patrons. It intends to be a social gathering where members will read and discuss their favorite book over coffee, tea, and snacks.

The Book Club is open to any genre of literature, but preference would be given to literary fiction, which is often considered to have greater intellectual and artistic merit.

Unlike genre fiction, literary fiction is not bound by specific genre expectations or conventions. It generally has a character-driven narrative with well-developed, complex characters and explores deep psychological and emotional nuances. Literary fiction also often delves into complex themes, social commentary, and philosophical questions, exploring the human condition and its various facets.

The first meeting in our spacious and cozy community room. Please come and share with us the books you are reading and help plan the meetings. A successful book club is a group effort where everyone’s opinion counts.

Once we meet, we will go over details, such as how often the club will meet, what time, and the means of communication between members.
