I have a special place in my heart for book clubs. I created and ran the 25 literary salons for Book Group Expo, a conference for book-clubbers and facilitators founded by book-loving philanthropist Ann Kent in San Jose, California. In my mind, a book club is the perfect setup for a social gathering, whether you’re looking for intellectual stimulation or a reason to eat and drink your way through an evening of friendship. There are as many types of book clubs as there are families, and I’m interested in them all. Invite me!
