About Us
The Book Lovers Club was founded in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the fall of 1997. Our focus is on fiction, but we occasionally read nonfiction as well. We try to read a variety of genres. Meetings
We meet the second Monday of the month. Meetings start at 6:30PM, with typically some social time as members arrive. The member who is hosting provides wine, other beverages and light snacks. We have not met in July or January historically. |
