Welcome to the launch of the Dreams and Caffeine Book Club! This is such an exciting event for me, because I love reading and I have always wanted to be part of a book club. Unfortunately, where I live makes participating in one somewhat difficult. After doing a lot of brainstorming, I decided to start my own online book club, and invite all of you to come join the fun.
Here is the rundown of how the book club will operate…
The club will “meet” on the last Wednesday of every month to discuss the book of the month. During that last Wednesday I will post a list of discussion points and then throughout the day anyone who would like to participate can do so through the comment section at the bottom of the post. This is not going to be super intense – it’s just a way to get everyone talking/participating in the book club. I will also announce the next book the club will be reading. I will pick the first couple of titles, then as we get going, I will have club members vote on books so everyone gets a say in what we read. My goal is to read a mix of fiction, non-fiction, self-help… basically a little bit of everything.
How to participate…
Although I won’t require it, I’d really appreciate it if you’d sign up for my email list (found at the top of the right column on each page). I promise I won’t spam you or give your information to others, but it gives me a great way to communicate with you regarding the club. Feel free to leave a comment to this post as well to let me know you’ll be reading along with me!
Rules of Participation…
- Keep language appropriate
- Be respectful of others’ opinions/comments
- Have fun!
The first book we will be reading will be The Husband’s Secret by Liane Moriarty. Our first meeting to discuss this book will begin on Wednesday, August 31, 2016 starting at 8:00 am PDT and will run through the end of the day.
Feel free to comment or email me if you have any questions on the book club or suggestions on how to improve the book club… please remember this is a passion of mine and I would like this to be successful and fun for everyone! I look forward to our first meeting.

Hey Brittny,

What a great idea. I started my own healthy living reading challenge so that I also read health books. Good luck with your club. #CreativeMuster
Hi Karen,
Thank you so much for the encouragement… I am super excited about it! I will have to check out your healthy living reading challenge… I’m always up for a good self-help book.
Thank you for stopping by!

Ahh! This book looks great! I would love to join! I’ve always wanted to be a reader but unfortunately with 3 kids, I have a hard time scheduling book time unless it’s 10 pm in which I fall asleep after page 2:( Anyway, I think I might buy the book and make the plunge!?
Hey Mallory,
Yay… So glad you’re jumping in with me! It’s supposed to be a really good book.
Cheers,
Lisa
Lisa, what a terrific idea! I can’t participate just now, but look forward to getting in on it later. Good thinking!
Hi Jean,
Thank you so much for stopping by! Hopefully you can join in next month.
Cheers,
Lisa
What a fun idea! I found you at the Cozy Reading Spot and would love for you to share this at the Literacy Musing Mondays Linkup. http://www.foreverjoyful.net/?p=919
Hi Leslie,
Thank you for stopping by and for the information… I’ll definitely do that.
Cheers,
Lisa
hahaa I love this idea! Living a busy schedule in D.C. I enjoy reading, but don’t necessarily have time to make it to a physical book club.
Hi Sarah Jean,
That is exactly what inspired me to do the online book club. Loved the idea of a book club, but didn’t feel like I had the time to dedicate to physically meeting. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you join in!
Cheers,
Lisa
