My friends and I are going to start a book club. We're going to read one book a week and gather together every Saturday after dinner to discuss the book. We are going to take turns and pick a book of our choice. We are going to choose from specific genres 1 like drama, humor, non-fiction, true crime, and thrillers 3.
