Book Club Books Through all of the terrible and wonderful things we've been through over the past few years, there's one thing that remains constant: book clubs. Book clubs continue to be a wonderful way to meet people or to meet up with your friends and discuss something we all love. Picking the right books for your book club can make or break your meeting. Will you have plenty to talk about with this book, or will you stray off topic and start complaining about politics yet again? Ideally, book clubs are looking for the types of books that give them so much to talk about that-for an hour or two at least-they are given an opportunity to escape the normal everyday conversations and stresses in life and instead talk about something a little different. Something thought-provoking. Something fun. Here's a list of must-read books for your book club that are out now or that will be out in time for your summer/fall book club meetings.
