We are your hosts Brianna & Daria and we hope to provide the ultimate book club experience to create an environment of fun and support.

Our club is comprised of members who have diverse backgrounds, differences of opinions, ideas and perspectives. This means you'll always find something new and interesting here. That said, our members agree to follow a few simple guidelines to make sure everyone feels included and respected, and to make sure things stay fun and friendly.

RSVP. Let your club (and especially the meeting host) know if you’ll be able to make it to the meeting, and be sure to update your RSVP if your availability changes. It’s easy to manage RSVPs for your club using the Bookclubs app or website.
ARRIVE ON TIME. Don’t keep your club hanging! This applies equally to in-person meetings and virtual discussions.
READ THE BOOK! If you haven’t finished the book but decide to attend your book club meeting, anyway, be prepared to hear spoilers. Life happens, and sometimes we don’t get to do as much reading as we’d like. We totally understand, however each meeting we will discuss the book in its entirety.
COME PREPARED. Spend some time before the meeting thinking about the book. Bonus points for bringing discussion questions (check to see if there’s a book club discussion guide on the Bookclubs site, or check out our list of general book club discussion questions for any book)
SPEAK UP. Contribute to the discussion! Book clubs work best when everyone participates.
LISTEN TO OTHERS. Your fellow book club members want to hear your opinion — but they also want to hear everyone else’s. Don’t interrupt or dominate the discussion. This is particularly important for virtual book club discussions where it can be harder to tell if someone wants to add to the conversation. Take advantage of features like virtual hand raising to make sure everyone gets a turn to contribute.
BE HONEST. Most of us join book club because we want a richer reading experience through discussion. That can only happen when we share what we really thought or felt about a book. It’s completely fine to dislike — or even hate — a book that someone else loves. Having different tastes in books is part of what makes book clubs fun. And polarizing books are often the best books to pick for book club! However:
BE RESPECTFUL. You can disagree with someone, but always do so respectfully. Ask questions. Avoid personal attacks. And keep an open mind.
HAVE FUN! Why are we book clubbing if we’re not having fun? Don’t worry so much about the book club rules and expectations that you’re not enjoying book club.
