We have the following regular book clubs:
We read memoirs or fiction novels from different parts of the world. Sometimes, authors join the second half of the meeting.
We pick a speculative fiction book that expands our sense of what’s possible.
Each participant picks a recipe from the selected cookbook and cooks it to share it with the group. Sometimes, authors also join the meeting.
A topic is picked and one fiction and one non-fiction book is recommended. Participants can read either. Discussion focuses on the topic so other reading materials are also welcome.
It is based on the idea that part of living a feminist life includes close reading of feminist texts and learning with others. Each month, we pick a feminist book and meet to discuss key ideas.
If you want to join any of these, please send us an email at info@bol.coop.
