We Read to Live Book Club Meet Up (in person)

Welcome to the We Read to Live Book Club Meet Up (in person)!

This has been a dream of mine for a really, really long time. Hosting other readers and writers in New York City to talk about books. There are no assignments, no stiff questions, no rules on what format or genre you choose read. Most importantly, we don't have to read the same book. Each month, I release a well-curated selection of books that vary in genre, topic, and theme. The objective is to find literature that speaks to you, entertains you, and encourages you to keep reading.

There's no separation between reading and writing, so We Read to Live Book Club mixes book chat with writer prompts, sharing excerpts from our favorite books from the reading lists, and sharing books.

In order to facilitate this event in a space that's safe and accessible, I rented a venue in midtown Manhattan. Tickets are offered on a sliding scale but they are limitedI rented a venue in Midtown Manhattan to facilitate this event in a safe and accessible space.
