What we’re about
Welcome to the Rhode Island Romance Book Club, where love stories come alive in the pages of our chosen romance novels!
Our book club is a haven for all passionate readers who adore tales of love, passion, and happily ever afters. Whether you're a die-hard romantic or simply curious about the genre, you're invited to join our monthly meetup and indulge in the magic of love stories.
Escape the everyday and dive into the world of love, desire, and captivating narratives. Our book club is a sanctuary for discussing, dissecting, and delighting in all things romance. We celebrate the diversity within the genre, from historical romance to contemporary love stories, from paranormal passion to LGBTQ+ romances. Every month, we read a new book to explore together, allowing you to explore the vast and exciting world of romance novels.
We host in-person and virtual meetups each month. Join one or both - either way we'll have a lively discussion about that month's book!
