Publisher's Synopsis
From the world of Bibliophile comes a brand-new journal made just for the bookiest people-book clubs!
The only thing better than reading a great book is reading a great book and then talking about it with friends, over excellent snacks and drinks. For book clubbers everywhere, bestselling author and illustrator Jane Mount adds to the special joy of book club life with a new addition to her beloved Bibliophile line: an irresistible literary journal packed with bookish art and inspiration to record, remember, and rank all the titles your book club reads.
With generous pages of book club meeting notes, this journal will help you track event dates and everything about meetings, including:
- Which books you read and who selected them
- Each book's genre and reading format
- Details like favorite (and least favorite) characters and best quotes
- Notes on questions for the group and highlights from the discussion
- Ratings, from one to five stars, including writing quality, characters, and plot
- Who hosted and what food or drink were served
Throughout, you'll find illustrated lists (graced with Jane's delightfully chatty handwritten notes!) of brilliant books from various genres to inspire club picks and celebrate the wonderful world of literature. And, because no Bibliophile book would be complete without copious extras, you'll also find plenty of prompts and activities-like a place to record titles you want your club to consider, a list of discussion questions, a bingo game, an illustrated overview of celebrity book clubs, and a delicious section to record the best-ever snack your club has enjoyed!
BOOK CLUB MUST-HAVE: From longtime friend groups to library-hosted meetings to podcasts and blockbuster celebrity clubs like Oprah's, Reese's, and Read With Jenna, book clubs are (insert fire emoji). This reader's journal is uniquely crafted for book clubbers, allowing individuals to record their own notes and reading journeys and for groups to create a collective archive.
POPULAR AUTHOR-ILLUSTRATOR: Jane Mount has become synonymous with creative, unique book illustrations, especially in her signature bookstack style. From her own illustration-filled books to covers designed for Reese Witherspoon's book club, bookstore tote bags to covetable enamel pins, and much more, Jane's work is instantly recognizable.
