Apr 4, 2023 · The best part of being in a book club is getting to discuss the books you read with fellow bookworms, but it’s not always easy to stay on track and keep focused on the book. Below, you’ll find five ways to structure your book club discussion based on what’s best for your group.
Aug 26, 2024 · Whether you’re a seasoned book club leader or a newbie looking for some guidance, this post is for you. We’ll cover: How to choose the right book for your book club. How to prepare for a book club meeting. How to structure and facilitate a book club discussion. How to deal with common book club challenges.
Sep 7, 2023 · Even if your book club runs its discussions without a moderator as a guide, it’s important for each group to have a host (or two) who can keep everyone on the same page.
Feb 2, 2024 · A successful book club requires the right combination of book selection, atmosphere, stimulating discussion material, and effective communication and organization among members.
- You Need To Read the Book (…or Do You?) Reading the selected book is an obvious “rule” for book clubs, otherwise what’s the point? And most articles suggesting rules for books clubs consider this a hard and fast one.
- Come Prepared to Discuss the Book. It’s not enough to read the book and “like it” or “hate it”. You want to be able to participate a robust conversation about what made the book good (or weird, or a slog, or illuminating.)
- Make Sure to RSVP. …and to cancel that RSVP if you can’t make it. This is a simple rule of how to be polite in life. But, just to underscore it, if your club is being hosted in someone’s home, then they have likely prepared food or refreshments.
- Practice Respectful Honesty. You and your book club friends will, at times, have very different takeaways from your reading experiences. And you should be honest about whether you liked the book (or not), how it made you feel, or the quality of your reading experience.
So, we’ve developed this guide on how to run a book club discussion to help you develop those facilitation skills and host the best book club possible. The guide offers 10 tips that will help you lead a book club discussion that’s robust enough to keep everyone engaged…and coming back.
