We have a discord server with ten book clubs. https://discord.gg/KgFF9j3GTh

The themes of the book clubs are Fiction, Non-fiction, Graphic Novels, FOMO (for classics and other well known books), Cozy Reads, Classic Crime Novels, Short Reads, Long Reads, Romance, and 80's Ladies as well as ReReads for popular book series.

As of July 1st we're reading the following books in the following book clubs:

Fiction: All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
Non-Fiction: Men Who Hate Women by Laura Bates
Graphic Novels: M is for Monster by Talia Dutton and Strange Planet by Nathan W Pyle
FOMO: The Road by Cormac McCarthy and Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Cozy: The Plot is Murder by VM Burns
Classic Crime Novels: The Godwulf Manuscript by Robert B Parker
Short Reads: A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K LeGuin

80's Ladies: A Cry in the Night by Mary Higgins Clark
Re-read: A Feast for Crows by George RR Martin and The Vile Village (A Series of Unfortunate Events #7) by Lemony Snicket

You can read some, all, or none of the books. No pressure! Everything is read at your own pace. We just ask you use spoiler tags for spoilers.

And if you don't want to join discord to discuss these books please feel free to post your thoughts in the comments on this post.

Thank you so much!

If anyone is interested in seeing what graphic novels we've read so far we keep a current list on goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/group/bookshelf/1182963-lighthouse-library-graphic-novel-book-club

With graphic novels in particular we read two every month.

And we use discussion thread channels for our book clubs so it's possible for people to join in on the conversation even if they join after we've already finished something.
