Eclectix the Book Club
This book club is designed to introduce its members to an array of genres with Black authors as its top priority. Aiming to recognize the range of one’s interests in the literary world, we hope to bring together an open-minded group of eclectics to journey through some new and older books as a segue to encourage discussion and establish community. Eclectix the Book Club is perfect for readers who would like to join either an in-person and/or virtual discussion.
ECLECTIX THE (IN-PERSON) BOOK CLUB
The in-person book club meets once a month in Louisville, KY. You must RSVP for these discussions, each ticket is $15 with all funding going back into the fees and demand of running the book club. Stay up to date on future book club discussions and events by following Intro to Eclecticism on Eventbrite.
ECLECTIX THE (VIRTUAL) BOOK CLUB
The free, virtual book club meets on the last Tuesday of each month to discuss the monthly pick at 6:30PM/EST. Full access to the group, including the link to the Zoom discussion is available only in the Discord server.
Grab your copies from local independent bookstore Foxing Books for an additional discount using code ECLTX or mentioning that you’re a member while shopping in person. A comprehensive list of all book club picks is available on BookShop and Amazon. Thank you for being a part of this growing community!
