Even knowing this, I was a little surprised by the abundance of books where book clubs play a main role. In many of the titles listed below, book clubs aren’t only settings: they’re catalysts, whether for plot advancement or for character growth. Granted, it may be a little self-centered (I mean, we don’t get to ‘Dante writing self-insert fan fiction where he’s praised by Virgil’ territory, but we are readers who enjoy reading about other readers). But it’s fascinating, too. It makes me wonder about this need to bond over this thing we love. The books I listed here all delve into that need. They’re mostly fiction, but the appeal of book clubs (and their power) are very real. Can’t get enough of books about book clubs? Receive tailored-to-you recommendations with our service TBR!
