Book Clubs can play an important part in a reader’s life. They allow for students to discuss a similar text and share personal reflections. Book Clubs offer an authentic opportunity to build relationships with peers while reading the same book.  Try forming a book club in your own home or in your neighborhood. Start by inviting a few friends to join. Then have the club members agree upon a common text to read. Pick a date to discuss the book once completed. Use the “book club thinking stems” to help generate engaging conversations. Books Clubs are a perfect way to make reading fun at home.
