Our Word Travel Book Club meets every-other-month to read books from a common country. We pick the destination and you choose what book to read!  When we gather, we’ll all be introduced to a broader survey of a country’s writing, and have the chance to explore connections and themes across books. If you attend a book club meet-up, you’ll also receive a discount for another book from that month’s featured destination.

OUR FIRST DESTINATION:  MEXICO
For our first book club, we'll head to Mexico! I've made a few recommendations below, but you can always choose another book from our featured country. Read a long-overdue classic, or try out a new genre — read what catches your attention!
