Reading with Coffee
Guidelines

Purpose

  • To learn new perspectives and participate in healthy debates.

  • Read books beyond your normal boundaries.

  • Opportunity to socialize with your neighbors/community and fellow book lovers.

  • Exposure to new ideas and differing viewpoints.

  • We have to talk about the book, if its a stinker the talk will be short.

  • Haven't finished or even read the book?

​

When its your time to choose a book for the group to read, it can either be enjoyable or frightening.  You won't please all, not everyone will like every book.

Consider

  • Topic

  • Length - typically no longer than 450 pages.

  • Publication date.

  • A book that fosters great discussion.

  • Should be available through the library.

  • Bring 2 books to present and let the group decide.

​

If you are the host, come with discussion questions, author information, author bio and author photo. 

Below are some resources, reviews, and discussion questions:

​
