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.

We will take turns hosting the gathering 4. The first one will be at my house. My husband is going to take our son to the movies, so we can have a quiet house for discussion.
