Thread the Pages | A Book Club


I’ve been wanting to join a book club for a while now. I love to read and I love getting together with a bunch of ladies to talk about nerding out over books. A friend of mine put one together, but I found that I am just not able to commit to driving down the the meet ups, especially while nursing a baby and being a one vehicle family. So a few weeks ago I decided to organize an online book club. It seems to make the most sense since it gives me and the members the flexibility of staying in and still be able to be a part of a club. Maybe while still wearing our jammies and enjoying our coffee and chatting online?
With a few social media posts and a lot of responses, my book club is born!
Thread the Pages Book Club.
Can I just say I am totally in love with the name!?
I’ve never organized a book club before so I researched some guidelines in having one. There were suggestions of having a themed book club, meeting at a different members house each month, how long the meetings should be, how to choose a book – wow! I didn’t realize how much organization came with forming a book club! But after reading the helpful tips coupled with having this an online club, I definitely have figured out how I would like the group to form. And I have such great ladies on board that gives the group diversity and fun!
The first book has been chosen and is Talk Before Sleep by Elizabeth Berg. The first meeting will be scheduled after the holidays in January. If you would like to join, send me an email at willow.little@gmail.comI would love to add you to the group!
Lets get our book on!

    1. Hi! Thank you for wanting to join. I currently am not accepting sign ups until January as we are already in the middle of the book for the month. But if you send me an email with the subject "Book Club' and let me know you would like to sign up, I will add you to the list in January after our first meeting. Excited to have you be a part of the club :) Xo
