Community Book Club
[Please note: this date is currently tentative - but it will be this week!]
We’re thrilled for our collaboration between Shine & Rise and Bonding Over Books! Together, we’ll host a quarterly book club where Shine & Rise members and friends can come together to discuss a chosen book, build connections, and share a mutual love of reading.
Q2 Book Choice: The Other Einstein by Marie Benedict
We ask everyone try to read the book before the event; however, we totally understand life happens and invite you to still attend for connection and engaging conversation whether or not you have read the book!
Conversations are guided by the Bonding Over Books conversation card game—created specifically for book clubs and bookworms. These cards are designed to spark meaningful discussions and deepen connections, while still keeping the focus on the book. Attendees will have the opportunity to purchase the game at a discounted price, participate in giveaways, win exclusive merchandise at the book club meeting.
Come for the stories, stay for the thoughtful conversations, and leave with a stronger sense of community!
