All booked up
online book club
A few months into the pandemic, a friend of mine said to me, “Kelsey, you should start a book club.”
Never one to turn down an invitation to bring people together around a shared love (& craving any form of connection to other humans), I started a book club!
All Booked Up is an intimate circle of reading lovers who connect each month(ish) to review a shared read & to share current reads.
Expect your TBR list to grow exponentially.
Sharing
a love of reading
We’re passionate about sharing a love of reading, but not so passionate about reading rules! Our group is fairly informal. Our reviews consist of a feedback offering round (where each reader can offer their summary of their book experience), general questions or commentary, & then a quick rating/ranking wrap.
Then we move into the fun part – what has everyone been reading, what is everyone reading, & what do we have on our TBR’s (you know this is where things get juicy).
Some other fun facts about how we club:
- Each reader contributes a book recommendation at the beginning of each session.
- We do a random draw to select which book we begin with & then typically allocate 5-6 weeks for each book.
- We strive to build an inclusive reading list, including BIPOC authors, Indigenous authors, & LGBTQQIP2SAA authors.
- We love to read a blend of fiction, non-fiction, biographies, & poetry.
- We meet virtually via Zoom and manage event details through the Bookclubs app
- Virtual meetings are typically between 60 – 90 min
We understand that life gets busy & if you need to miss a month – no worries! But since it is a small group (only 8 readers), we do love when readers interested in joining All Booked Up are ready to make space for the book club! After all – sharing together is what this is all about!
All the important details
