Morbidly Curious Book Club: NOVA Chapter (Northern Virginia)
The MCBC NOVA Chapter is a localized chapter of The Morbidly Curious Book Club. An 18+ non-fiction macabre-focused book club diving into the darker parts of your library, whether it be true crime cases, morally ambiguous medical practice, spirits and ghosts, or death. We discuss 1 book around the end of each month. You will see the book we are reading in the 'Currently Reading' tab, and the meeting time on the 'Meeting' tab. We ask beforehand that you check trigger warnings on all books we discuss. It is safe to assume they will be touching on many tough subjects. Some may be easy to miss. Proceed with caution. You do not have to commit to anything. Come and join as you may and discuss at your own will. Even if you weren't quite able to finish the book!
