Our Story
We started about eight years ago. There are many book clubs around but never a non-fiction book club. Speaking of Books fixes that. You don’t need to be a member of the Fellowship to join just a book lover. We choose our own books and follow where our interests and curiosity lead us. We value open and insightful as well as fun and friendly conversation. We try to stay two months ahead in picking our books. Every January we take a break from non-fiction and share a poem or two or other writing that spoke to us.
