The Modesto Bee launching book club in partnership with Bookish
The Modesto Bee is excited to announce a new book club for our readers, in partnership with Bookish Modesto.
With a collection of books about local issues, by local authors, or relevant to our audiences, The Bee and Bookish aim to provide a bimonthly community space to gather and discuss our latest selection over light refreshments.
Book club selections will be released this year in March, May, July, September and November. Book club meetings will be in alternating months, the first one set for April 21. Meetings will be held the third Tuesday of every other month.
Bookish Modesto is offering a 15% discount for Bee book club members on their purchases of our selections, and encourages readers to order their books online at www.bookishmodesto.com. At every book club meeting, attendees will receive a raffle ticket to be entered for a single $25 gift card for Bookish.
The Modesto Bee aims to feature authors, subject-matter experts and our own journalists during book club meetings to provide their perspective and expertise. If you’re interested in signing up for the Bee book club, fill out our Google form: tinyurl.com/BeeBookClub.
Our first book selection will be announced Feb. 27 through our newsletter.
