What we're about
My Sisters Book Club will typically meet on the 3rd Thursday of each month at 7 pm to discuss thought-provoking literature, enjoy food and/or adult beverages, and have a great conversation. The focus of this book club is to enjoy the company and perspectives of other women while exploring and appreciating literature.
Processes:
Every other month we open the meeting for three new members. New Member attendee months for the next year are as follow:
August 2021
October 2021
January 2022
March 2022
May 2022
July 2022
After your first book club meet, you are automatically able to RSVP without a waitlist to future meets until we get to a max of 20 attendees.
After attending previous book club meetings, new members are eligible for special events such as events at personal homes, movie viewings, or restaurant dinners.
Our objective is to continue building our sisterhood while maintaining and strengthening our current group's bonds.
Book Selection: Each month during the meet-up, we vote on what we will read for the next meeting. Any member present or not may submit a book to be included in the vote. Whatever book wins the book we read. A tie may be broken, or the alternate book is designated for the following month at the group's discretion.
Meeting Schedule and Book Announcement:
Within three days of the meeting, I will post the next meeting date and the book selected on Meetup. Each person who RSVP's will be automatically placed on the waitlist, but current members will be removed as their place has been held. During the months that we accept new members, new members will also be removed from the waitlist based on the order of the RSVP.

About the Book...
Maybe in Another Life by Taylor Jenkins Reid
A breathtaking new novel about a young woman whose fate hinges on the choice she makes after bumping into an old flame; in alternating chapters, we see two possible scenarios unfold—with stunningly different results.
At the age of twenty-nine, Hannah Martin still has no idea what she wants to do with her life. She has lived in six different cities and held countless meaningless jobs since graduating college. On the heels of leaving yet another city, Hannah moves back to her hometown of Los Angeles and takes up residence in her best friend Gabby’s guestroom. Shortly after getting back to town, Hannah goes out to a bar one night with Gabby and meets up with her high school boyfriend, Ethan.
Just after midnight, Gabby asks Hannah if she’s ready to go. A moment later, Ethan offers to give her a ride later if she wants to stay. Hannah hesitates. What happens if she leaves with Gabby? What happens if she leaves with Ethan?
In concurrent storylines, Hannah lives out the effects of each decision. Quickly, these parallel universes develop into radically different stories with large-scale consequences for Hannah, as well as the people around her. As the two alternate realities run their course, Maybe in Another Life raises questions about fate and true love: Is anything meant to be? How much in our life is determined by chance? And perhaps, most compellingly: Is there such a thing as a soul mate?
