I love talking to people about books. Anywhere I go, when I tell them what I do, it takes two seconds before I find myself in “book concierge” mode. I love making recommendations, and it’s even more heartwarming when friends are in touch to tell me how much they enjoyed the books that were suggested. I bet that you feel the same way when your group discussion is really engaging about a title that you selected. Remember, not everyone has to like the book; they do have to be able to have a great discussion about it. We know that by reading this newsletter you are a concierge to your book group.
