I'm Jeanna Rock, and we’re talking about how to make your own book club. Let's suppose
that you want to read literature on a particular topic. For example, politics. And there is
not political group out there. How do you organize your own political book group? The
first thing I would suggest is talking among your friends and see if there's anyone interested
there? If you want to widen your horizons and invite other voices into your group, I
would suggest posting some notices at your local library or at the bookstore. And that
maybe you'll get some more political views as well. Be sure and specify where you're
going to meet and when you're going to meet, and if you'd like to invite some local politician
from the area to be a guest speaker at that book group, you might even get more people
to show up. At that meeting, you'll organize and decide what you're going to read, where
you're going to meet, and how often you're going to meet, and maybe what political slant
you're going to take. Or, you might invite people from opposite political parties and
get a good debate going as well.
