What we’re about
The Sci Fi Book Club was founded in 2014 as a way to formally explore the genre of Science Fiction. With books ranging from classics to new releases and from novels to short stories, we aim for diversity in our selections.
Club members have one month to read the book the group has agreed on. We meet via Zoom on the third Sunday of each month to talk about our reading and all things Sci Fi. Our hope is that members will come ready to contribute to the conversation both in their thoughts on the given book and with any insight into related media that might inform our discussion.
Occassionally we will all decide to take some extra time on a book, but members should plan on four weeks to complete the reading. You do not have to have finished the book to come to the meeting. We hope to see you either way, there's always plenty to talk about. Find out more at thescifibookclub.com.

Hi all,
For our final book in this alien-related arc, let's flip the script. Instead of distant planets and intergalactic space stations, our September selection starts right here on Earth. The Mountain in the Sea is a novel about humanity just as much as it is about the strange beings found lurking beneath the ocean's surface. Slate called the book a "...new sci-fi thriller [that] asks fascinating questions about intelligence and the unknown."
Book of the Month:
The Mountain in the Sea - Ray Nayler (2022)You can find the Goodreads info here, and I found an interesting article about the novel from Medium that has really piqued my interest. I don't know too much more about The Mountain in the Sea and don't want to spoil it for myself. So let's take this member recommendation and jump in!
To join a Book Club meeting, all you will need is YOURSELF. If you haven’t had a chance to finish the book, we still would love for you to join us in the discussion.
