24F - Spooky Book Club Friends!
[EDIT] HI! Wow I didn't know there would be this much interest! Thanks so much to everyone who has reached out. I feel that we have far more than anticipated as it is so I am going to close invites for now! If you're disappointed I am sorry to hear that, but encourage you to start your own! Clearly there are interested people. Happy Halloween everyone!
Hi everyone! I've posted once before but thought it might be nice to have a more constructive invitation for friendship. I'm 24F who recently moved to the area as a newly wed! I've always loved horror movies, procedurals and a book that makes me jump, so thought a year-round spooky book club would be a perfect way to make some friends in the area!
- This is an entirely free club, I'm not looking to charge a fee or run a huge operation. We'd all just buy our own copies of the books.
- One book per month (crime, thriller, horror, slasher, procedural or haunting themed books. They will be rotated to match seasons!)
- Books are announced at the start of the month
- Meetings would be at the end of the month, an hour to chat about the book, and another to simply socialize. It can become a bit less formal the more friendly we become with each other.
- To start we can meet publicly in locations such as cafes and book stores, in the Sacramento area. Eventually if we're all comfortable I'd be happy to host at my home! Ideally we'd move into having a potluck style meeting.
- As a lesbian, I can assure this is a queer friendly space! I would love to welcome people of all ages so long as they are 21+
- I know that the October reading has a bit of a head start on us but I think it's early enough in the month to still have us kick off for the spookiest month of the year!
My personal vision for this beyond getting in at least one book a month, would be to find some genuine friendships united by a great piece of literature. I'd love to have 2-6 other members and just have a consistent social thing to add to all our calendars.
