Find a bookclub that interests you! Every Thursday Night, you can join one of our bookclubs! When you’re in a club, you also get 15% off your bookclub reads! Bookclub membership is only $5/month!

  • Support local voices and discover hidden literary treasures! The Local Authors & Indie Gems Club celebrates books written by Appalachia-based authors and standout indie reads. Connect with fellow book lovers and, occasionally, hear directly from authors about their work every first Thursday. A must-join for those who love discovering fresh perspectives and supporting the literary community!

  • Calling all fiction & romance readers! Whether you're into slow burns, second-chance love, or heart-racing chemistry, Love & Lit explores the best of modern romance novels. From bestselling rom-coms to emotionally rich love stories, we’ll swoon, sigh, and discuss it all every second Thursday. If you believe in the power of love stories, this club is for you!

  • Step into the literary past with Timeless Tales, where we read and discuss classic literature that has shaped storytelling through the ages. From the works of Austen and Dickens to Hemingway and Morrison, this club celebrates books that have stood the test of time every Third Thursday. Perfect for those who love diving deep into literary masterpieces!

  • Love a good whodunit? Our Mystery & Thriller Book Club delves into crime fiction, psychological thrillers, and suspenseful stories that keep you on the edge of your seat. Whether it's a classic detective novel or a modern mystery, we dissect twists, turns, and theories together every fourth Thursday. If you love a page-turner, this club is for you!
