Book clubs are about more than just books – they're about community, shared experiences, and growth. That's why Bookclubs is excited to introduce our latest feature that allows you to organize and post meetings beyond your regular book discussions.  Bookclubs Premium, Pro, and Pro Plus clubs can now add custom titles to meetings and events.  Use this feature to enrich your book club experience, fostering stronger connections and more diverse experiences. 

Non-book Book Club Event Ideas

Host a Festive Holiday Party

Bring your members together for some seasonal cheer. Whether it's a cozy winter gathering or a summer barbecue, you can now easily plan and announce special events.

Organize a Movie Night

We typically believe the book is better than the movie – but why not watch and discuss both? Use our new feature to plan viewing parties for film or TV adaptations of your favorite reads.

Plan Your Book Club Retreat

Take your club on the road! Arrange a getaway to bond, relax, and of course, discuss books in a fresh environment.

Pick Your Books for the Upcoming Year

Are you and your club big planners? Host an end of year celebration to pick all your titles for the year to come!

Celebrate Themed Meetings

Align your gatherings with important cultural moments. For example, host a Pride Month meeting featuring an LGBTQ+ author or plan a Black History Month event showcasing Black literature.

 

How to Use the New Feature

It's easy to add a title to your meeting on Bookclubs.  When you're creating a new meeting, just check the box to "Add meeting or event title" and then enter the title of your meeting or event in the provided space:
