Club Read 2023

Welcome to Club Read!
For the past fifteen years, Club Read has been a home for thoughtful readers who enjoy sharing what they are reading and being inspired by the reading of others. Club Read members have become friends over the years, and every year new members join looking for a warm reading hub. Book talk binds us together, and the conversations are lively. Browse the threads, and if you like the type of conversations happening here, join in!
