I love this permission to have a book club, even if it is just two people! I often, when trying to know someone better, will ask what their favorite book is. I've read many books I wouldn't normally read so I can follow up the conversation with, "So I read your favorite book! I'd love to chat about it!" I especially like this when trying to connect with students. It helps me understand what they gravitate towards and how I can recommend other books they'd love.

Lovely post! Thanks for sharing!

My husband and I do this! I never thought of it as book club, just that I was so lucky to have a husband who likes to read!
