10 Awesome Book Club Groups to Join on Goodreads
Finding the right bookish communities for you
“Fill your house with stacks of books, in all the crannies and all the nooks” — Dr. Seuss.
I love reading books, especially for self-development and growth purposes. So in 2019, a small group of us would meet up in the local library to discuss our current reads and, more importantly, what we planned to put into action from these books. Then the pandemic hit, and the world went into lockdown.

If I am not writing on this platform, then it’s guaranteed you can find me there! It’s a great site where I can follow the reading progress of my friends. Hold myself accountable by tracking the books I read and want to read, discover new books, rate books, create reading lists, take part in challenges and even engage with my favourite authors — some of whom now follow me.
However, my favourite part of Goodreads is the discussion groups you can join. Within these groups, you can participate in polls, watch book-related videos, get recommendations, and see what other people with similar interests are reading.
