The November book club meetings are swiftly approaching! With five chances to attend this month, we hope there will be one or many discussions you find yourself attending here at Bookish Notions.

All book clubs are free to attend. No RSVP needed! Just read the chosen book, show up, & get ready to have some great conversation with fellow bookish community members.

All book club books are available for purchase at the store for 10% off, but feel free to read or listen however you’d like.

We hope to see you there!
