Changes to Our Book Club

There are two big changes that have been made to the book club:

 

  1. Starting with the August 2019 selection, books will be selected for our reading list from a list of books suggested by our readers.
  2. The discussion of each book will take place on the page describing the book (as described here).

 

Both changes are being tried in an effort to get more readers to participate in the conversations.

 

In fact, these types of conversations do not have to be limited to the books on AALBC's reading list. Conversation can take place on the pages of any of the over 12,000 books described on our website.  

 

You may suggest books for our reading list on our Black Literature Forum.  The only criteria is that the book be written by or about Black people.  All genres in fiction and nonfiction are acceptable.
