[close] A Windsor based book club for Horror, Suspense and Thrillers. An online book club ( and hopefully virtual to in-person meetings later) where people can share their love of the dark, thrillers and horror.

[close] Welcome to SDG's virtual book club! Life may be difficult right now – with so much adversity; having to modify our behaviours, adjust our routines and missing out on time with those we hold dear. Real connection, open communication and positivity are so important right now as we find ways to help us through this unprecedented time. The SDG Library is inviting you to connect with us, and others through the SDG Stay-at-Home Book Club – a virtual version of what so many of us enjoy in our local branches. We look forward to reading together, sharing our stories – using words to inspire, uplift and encourage.

[close] Ce groupe a été créé pour lancer un défi à des élèves du secondaire : résoudre un problème réel à travers la littérature. Leur mission est de rechercher, analyser et recommander des œuvres (romans, pièces de théâtre, bandes dessinées, histoires courtes) qui ne véhiculent pas de propos racistes et dont les auteurs évitent l’appropriation culturelle. Les élèves devront développer leur esprit critique, apprendre à repérer les biais dans les récits, et réfléchir à la responsabilité des créateurs dans la représentation des cultures et des identités. Ce groupe est un espace de discussion, de partage et de réflexion sur la diversité, l’éthique et l’impact social de la littérature. Objectifs du groupe : • Encourager une lecture consciente et engagée • Développer des compétences de recherche et d’analyse littéraire • Promouvoir des œuvres inclusives et respectueuses • Créer une bibliothèque collaborative de lectures responsables

[close] If you love to read and read and read... well you get the picture and wine then you will love our book club. It began as an in person book club at our winery North 42 Degrees located in sunny Southern Ontario - Colchester to be exact but soon we found that members couldn't attend in person and of course it's 2020 so we thought that we would bring the group to Goodreads. What kind of book club? Somewhere between highly social and seriously academic. Of course we'll have a discussion about what we read, share stories, make recommendations, share some laughs and of course each read will be paired with one of our wines. Each wine pairing will reflect the book. Chick lit may call for a bit of bubbly, while Wuthering Heights a moody Pinot noir! What kind of books? We're partial to historical fiction and Canadiana but we try to mix it up with different genres and books that are rich in ideas and characters. Anything is pretty well fair game as long as the book offers a lot of opportunity for discussion.
