Gloria Coles Flint Public Library supports several book clubs by purchasing multiple copies for the collection, having scheduled book discussions, extending the check-out period to one month without having to be renewed, and by providing a welcoming, comfortable space in which to meet. New members are always welcome; join us!
Fiction Only Book Club (FOBC)
The FOBC meets the third Wednesday of the month from 12PM to 1PM, September through June.
Members read interesting, thought-provoking books about different cultures, ethnicities, religions, and race. Lively, engaging discussions always ensue. If there is time, we end with a discussion of which books we’ve read and would recommend. New members are always welcome. Look for FOBC meetings in the Events Calendar to see what book we are reading!
Black Life & Literature Book Club (BLLBC)
The Black Life & Literature Book Club meets the 2nd Saturday of the month from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM. Exploring the rich tapestry of Black life and culture through literature, this book club celebrates diverse voices and narratives that resonate with the Black experience. Look for BLLBC meetings in the Events Calendar!
Silent Book Club (SBC)
The Silent Book Club meets the 3rd Friday of the month from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
The Silent Book Club, the Library’s newest book club, is perfect for readers who want to choose which books they read without being expected to participate in a mandatory discussion. It’s an opportunity to reconnect with books by carving out a designated time to read communally in quiet camaraderie! Look for Silent Book Club events in the Events Calendar!
