Book + Bottle Sponsored Book clubs
We offer several B+B sponsored book clubs here at the shop. We welcome you with open arms to join one or more of these amazing communities where we gather to share in the love of reading and the pursuit of thought and personal connection. As of now, you just buy the book (hopefully from us so we can keep these communities thriving) and then show up - no RSVP needed at this point. Read below to learn more about each of our book clubs, and check our calendar to see upcoming meetings and the chosen books.

FICTION
Welcome to Book + Bottle’s Fiction Book Club! We get together with a diverse group of folks to read great books and talk about them over glasses of wine. We started with an online Facebook group so we could connect before the store opened, and now that the store is open, we’re meeting and talking in person! And it’s just lovely. I love watching members gather and become friends after just one meeting. We have members who have never been in a book club before and members who are in three other book clubs! All are welcome.
Schedule
We meet on the last Thursday of each month in the store from 6 - 7:30PM. We do announcements and intros, grab drinks, and get settled from 6 - 6:30 PM, then discussion runs promptly from 6:30-7:30. The store is open till 9PM so you can continue the conversation with your new friends!
The fiction book club is very popular and gets extremely crowded. Please arrive as early as possible to snag a seat, knowing that we may run out of space in our little shop.
NEW + NOTEWORTHY
Here at Book + Bottle, we want to keep your reading fresh. This book club will focus on literary fiction published within the last five years. Things to expect: genre-bending work, debut novels and story collections, prominent voices in literature, diverse POVs, and so much more! Themes will range from wacky to serious in order to keep our discussions balanced. Join us if you like keeping up-to-date on the latest publications or simply want to chat about books over a glass of wine! All are welcome.
Schedule
We meet on the last Wednesday of every other month in the store from 6 - 7:30PM (Alternates with Genre).

GENRE
Our Rotating Genre Book Club asks you to get out of your comfort zone. Exploring various genres is a great way to see art—and the world—through different perspectives. Things to expect: A different genre every other month, genre-bending work, new and classic authors, and so much more! Together we’ll learn about each genre’s conventions and how certain authors follow and/or disrupt those expectations. Join us to read a novel that’s right in your wheelhouse or explore a genre you’ve never read before! All are welcome.
