Starting a book club is easy — all that you need is to love reading. Here's how to have a good start.
When you start your book club,the first thing is to get members for your club. They could be your friends,family or those you know from other activities,but they should all love reading. A small group of seven to ten people is usually a good size (大小) for a book club. ①
Once you have a group,agree (同意) on how often you want to meet — usually clubs meet every month. Pick a date and go with it. That way,members can easily plan for it. Send out emails a week before the meeting to give people a reminder (提醒). Set meeting time length (时长). An hour is a good start. Two hours is usually perfect. ②
Then,you need a good place,such as a library,a park or a restaurant. For many clubs,homes are the best and noisy (吵闹的) places can make conversation (交谈) hard. If members bring a plate of food or some drinks,it can help start talking. ③
Please don't forget (忘记) the most important (重要的) thing — the books! Think about the books your club will enjoy. Fiction (小说)? Non-fiction? Your club can pick books in different ways. You can take turns to recommend (推荐) books. ④
After you finish all these,your book club is ready. Now,it is time to have the first meeting. Enjoy your reading.
