Book Clubs
Already in a book club outside the Library, or want to form one? Try one of our Book Club Kits or pick up multiple copies of previous Book Club Picks.
For information about book clubs, contact our Reference Desk at reference@cityofmillvalley.org.
Or, join one of the book clubs the Library supports:
-
Classics Book Club
As writer Italo Calvino says, “A Classic has never exhausted all it has to say to its readers,” and we readers certainly have lots to say in response. Join us for lively discussions as we visit books that remain fresh and innovative: the Classics.
-
Civic Minded Book Club
Do you want to effect change in our society? Topics to be explored are the current global political climate, the Constitution, inequalities in the political and economic systems, the state of America and its citizens today, and alternatives for our future.
-
Great Escape Book Club
This book club invites members to step into other worlds and experience the best of speculative fiction (including science fiction, fantasy, and alternate reality).
-
Award-Winning American Novelists Book Club
This book club reads work by American authors who have won prestigious awards for fiction, such as the Pulitzer, Nobel, PEN/Faulkner, and the National Book Award.
-
World Literature Book Club
Where in the world will your next book take you? Join us as we sample a variety of contemporary and classical world literature, including works in translation. Our exploration of international literary perspectives and traditions provides a deeper understanding of other cultures and global diversity.
-
True Crime Book Club
Calling all true crime fans! Join us as we bond over the macabre and explore this gripping and disturbing genre where the truth is often stranger than fiction. In addition to discussing cases, we will examine aspects of psychology and the criminal justice system.
