How can I create a successfull reading group?

Question

I'm creating a new reading group at my local library, however, I've never done this before. I'be been to others but besides knowing the following reading book, I'm never sure of the structure. Is there a structure to these things? I know essentially we just discuss the book of the month, but that can seem fairly repetative and frankly dull. Utimatly, I suppose I'm asking: Is there a particular 'curriculum'?

Answer 1

is it down to how you advertise, but the major thing will be the choice of your first book.

Answer 2

I belong to a reading group. We meet monthly, get personal chat out of the way, then discuss the book. It's quite informal, enjoyment is the name of the game. At the end of the discussion, we decide from a list, which book we'll read next. We then score (out of 10) marks for the book we've just read.
It's helpful, if when you're reading the book of the month, you make any notes which you want to raise during your meeting.

Good luck - enjoy.
