In 2008, I combined my love of books with my love of parties. The idea was simple... our family would choose and read a great book. I would invite others to read the same book. I would collect $5 from each participant, plan games, contests, decorations, food and prizes all focused on the theme of the book! The money given by each participant would allow an ample budget for loads of book club party fun! The parties have been wildly successful. As a homeschool mom, I'm proud to say that we learn a little something, too!



Read more here about me, my family and my Book Club Parties. Discuss with me upcoming books and parties, make book suggestions, discuss other books I've read or books you're reading. Also, hopefully (sometime soon) get complete BOOK CLUB PARTY INSTRUCTIONS for all the book club parties I've thrown since 2008!

Book Club Changes!

Book Club Party no longer for teens... but for adult ladies and a few of our older teen girls when appropriate.  The first of the "new book club" party group was not without some drama, but we got through it and had a wonderful time discussing Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball which had many underlying themes and to top it off was simply a cute Christmas story. Our party, of course, involved food from the book provided by all... a couple favorites was Kaye's Spaghetti Meatloaf and Stacy's ice cream floats.  I was impressed that everyone knew so many of the answers to my questions, and the discussion was enlightening.  Our party ended with a Dirty Santa book exchange.  WHAT FUN!
