A small group of moms connected in a Facebook group and decided to start a book club. We meet once a month to discuss books we pick out together to read. Sometimes we read two books- sometimes one-sometimes we just come to the meetings for fellowship. This has been a wonderful way to connect, learn, and read outside our personal comfort zones. Below is a selection of the books we have read. If you are interested in an activity that will keep you reading, help you make friends, and allow you an outing with grown-ups, look no further- a mom’s book club is the answer.
