Books Again Book Club
Books Again is starting a book club in January of 2022. The club will now meet on the third Thursday of each month at 9 a.m. at the store. Books for the first six months have been selected. Continuation of the book club past June will be determined based on interest. If continued, the members will select the books for the remainder of the year.
The books are both fiction and nonfiction covering a variety of topics. Political, religious, romance, and books in a series will not be considered. Typical length is between 300- 400 pages. Members are required to find their own books. Many are available through the Pueblo Library District.
The book list has a link to discussion questions. Members are asked to read the book and answer the questions prior to the meeting. The meeting will consist of an author presentation, discussion of questions and overview of the following month's book.
The book club has been limited to ten members. Please sign up at the store or by calling (719) 553-0340. Communication with members will be through email.
