Book Clubs at Between the Covers
"A book must be an ice-axe to break the seas frozen inside our soul."
EXISTING BOOK CLUBS:
Existing book clubs are welcome to call us or email us with their selection for the month and we will stock a few copies on our book club shelf. It will be available at 15% for the duration of that month (to all customers). If you plan your reading list well in advance we can keep a copy of the list here and make sure the book club selections are on the shelf each month.
BETWEEN THE COVERS' BOOK CLUB:
Between the covers also hosts book clubs which are open to the public. The book is posted on the website and in the store along with the meeting time. All of those interested can purchase the book here at a 15% discount and are invited to come join our discussion.
