I&#8217;ve just moved house, and making IRL friends as an adult is tricky. So I wanted to start and run a book club to meet new people! Here are my top tips, this guide covers everything from scheduling to discussion questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s start with the logistics\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choosing Members: How to Start and Run a Book Club<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Decide who you\u2019d like to be in your book club&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To ensure a lively discussion, seek a range of opinions &#8211; unless you have a <a href=\"https:\/\/bookinfluencers.com\/blog\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=612&amp;action=edit\">genre-specific book club<\/a>, invite a couple of friends, family members or co-workers, who are open to different themes and genres<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Start small &#8211; 5 people are enough. The bigger the book club, the more overwhelming organisation and discussion becomes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When, where and how often will you meet?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Agree on a realistic schedule and location that works for everyone and lock it in!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You might meet online or in person. If your book club meets face-to-face, we recommend having a regular meeting spot, otherwise finding a location becomes another piece of admin the host has to take care of!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Send out calendar invites for your upcoming book club meetings. Make it the responsibility of whoever is hosting that month to confirm the details 1-2 weeks before you\u2019re due to meet, so everyone knows what\u2019s happening!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To get things moving, suggest up to 3 books for your first meeting and ask people to vote. These titles could be from your TBR, new releases, prize-winners, classics etc!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Agree how you will keep in touch in-between meetings, e.g. by email or WhatsApp<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who\u2019s in charge?

If so, what do they need to do?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How will you decide on the book of the month? (Tip: If using a WhatsApp group, the poll function is useful for this!)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You might need to take the lead initially. Make your life easy by keeping it simple!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have a format that everyone is comfortable with and stick to it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Got it?

However, it\u2019s possible to take a relaxed approach and it is a good opportunity to practice social skills<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Just gently stir the conversation back to the questions or key topics if it strays&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s also good for the host to encourage everyone in the group to have an opportunity to speak &#8211; if there is one or more dominating personalities, just politely involve others<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you have the time, it might be a good idea as the host to have specific ideas of what to discuss from the book if the conversation lulls<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discussion questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It\u2019s strongly recommended to have some questions prepared to get the conversation going, however we know that coming up with these yourself can be a challenge!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Perhaps agree on some general ones which you can apply to each sessions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use resources to help you. Sometimes, discussion questions are already included at the back of the book, so you can use those as a framework<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make notes, highlight or bookmark things that stood out to you as you read and formulate these into questions. We suggest:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 character or character relationship based question&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 question relating to the themes explored in the book<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 question relating to the format and writing style<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 question relating to the plot development<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 question about the ending<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Here are some links to cheat-sheets for further inspo:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bookclubs.com\/blog\/ultimate-list-of-book-club-discussion-questions\">The Ultimate List of Book Club Discussion Questions for Fiction and Non-Fiction<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.penguin.co.uk\/articles\/2024\/03\/the-ultimate-list-of-book-club-questions\">The ultimate list of book club questions<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/independentbookreview.com\/2023\/08\/11\/50-book-club-questions-2\/\">50+ Book Club Questions for a Fun &amp; Lively Discussion<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choosing the Next Read: Tips on How to Start and Run a Book Club<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Gather suggestions at the end of each book club, or be super-organised and agree on a reading list of books upfront and pick one from the list each month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Either vote and decide on your next title at the start\/end of each meeting, or give people a deadline and mechanism for casting their vote for your next book club pick<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Depending on the focus of your book club, you could focus on prize-winners, what\u2019s trending on Instagram and TikTok or even books that have been on your shelves for a while!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To get the juices flowing, check out this video from our friends at Tandem Collective, sharing their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=aNejUIA8RzI\">most anticipated reads in 2025<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, encourage people to participant in different formats &#8211; e-Books and audiobooks are absolutely welcome and also open up different experiences and perspectives!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us know how you get on!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether it\u2019s a New Year\u2019s resolution or you just want to inject some energy into your current reading group, this [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":1249,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[31,37,175,176],"class_list":["post-1244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-popular","tag-book-club","tag-bookinfluencers","tag-reading","tag-setting-up-a-book-club"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How to Start and Run a Book Club: A Complete Guide - Bookinfluencers.com Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Are you wanting to start a book club but not sure where to start?
