What we’re about
Welcome to the Book Club! Our club is a community of book lovers who come together to discuss, share, and explore the world of literature.
Each month, we select a book to read, and we spend the month reading. Then we meet at a cozy café or a library in Amsterdam and discuss it.
Our meetings are relaxed and informal, with a focus on open and respectful conversation. We begin by sharing our initial thoughts and reactions to the book, and then delve deeper into the themes, characters, and literary techniques employed by the author.
We also enjoy exploring the broader cultural and social context in which the book was written, as well as its relevance to our own lives and experiences.
Whether you're a lifelong bookworm or a newcomer to the world of literature, the Book Club offers a welcoming and engaging environment to explore the power and beauty of the written word.
