Reading groups and book clubs provide a great way to share and discuss the drama and power of novels, the lyricism of poetry, the compelling ideas of essays and histories. Left Bank Books promotes the concept of reading groups in several ways:

We host eight book clubs in our stores--Lesbian Reading Group, Gay Men's Reading Group, Novel Ideas, Read This Play, Shakespeare Festival Reads, Teen Reads, Writers Read and our newest reading group, Reading the World--and provide fiction and nonfiction selections for more than twenty different book clubs in the St. Louis area.

E-mail Sarah "Jonesey" Johnson (jonesey@left-bank.com) or CLICK HERE to register your group with Left Bank Books and receive 20% off your book selection, for one month prior to the discussion date! You can also e-mail Jonesey with any questions about starting or joining a reading group, which can be a great way to get to know new people in your neighborhood, social scene, or professional field.
