Bookends Book Club: The Forty Rules of Love
This beautifully layered novel moves between the present day and the 13th-century world of Rumi and Shams of Tabriz, exploring love, spirituality, transformation, and the courage to question the life we are living.
We’ll discuss the characters, the “rules” that stayed with us, the book’s reflections on love and faith, and how its themes connect to our own lives.
Whether you loved the book, had mixed feelings, or are simply curious to hear different perspectives, you’re welcome to join the conversation.
رواية سمرقند للكاتب أمين معلوف
رواية تأخذك من سمرقند عمر الخيام إلى مطلع القرن العشرين، عبر عالم تتشابك فيه الشعر والسياسة والحب، وتتقاطع فيه مصائر الشعراء والثوار - من الخيام الحالم إلى حسن الصباح صاحب القلعة والسلطة المطلقة. وفي قلب كل ذلك مخطوطة تضيع وتُبعث، كأنها الشرق نفسه.
نلتقي لنتأمل معاً ما تطرحه الرواية من أسئلة عن الهوية والحرية ولقاء الشرق بالغرب، بعيون أمين معلوف وبلغته الشاعرية الآسرة.
أهلاً بكل محبي القراءة والنقاش الأدبي

The Courage to Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga
Thanks for joining the Money Minds meetup group.
If you would like to be the first to know whenever a new event is announced, please join our whatsapp group using the link;
[https://chat.whatsapp.com/DPbMfZndPooGHSxFCLCKHg](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DPbMfZndPooGHSxFCLCKHg)
The Courage to Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga argues that happiness is a choice independent of past traumas, focusing on Adlerian psychology to help individuals overcome the need for approval. It promotes self-acceptance, the "separation of tasks" to avoid meddling in others' lives, and building horizontal relationships to achieve true freedom and fulfillment.

June Book Club Meetup
Welcome, readers!
Our June read is ***Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible*** ***Voyage***
**by Alfred Lansing.**
A work of nonfiction, and one of the most astonishing survival stories in history, we follow Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew after their ship is crushed by Antarctic ice. Stranded in one of the harshest environments on Earth, the men endure months of isolation, freezing temperatures, and near starvation—yet refuse to give up hope. Lansing brings their ordeal to life through vivid detail and firsthand accounts, capturing both the brutality of nature and the resilience of the human spirit. At its core, the story is a powerful testament to leadership, perseverance, and the unbreakable will to survive against impossible odds.
Looking forward to discussing with everyone!
We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **all** **drinks must be purchased at the bar.**
Happy reading! 📖
