Dear Readers,

Dating & Relationship Book Club MembersWelcome to C&C’s Book Club! 

Reading good books is an important part of our mental and emotional acuity.  Through books we develop the mind, our understanding of the written word and expand our intellect and imagination. That said, we are dedicated to providing an online and in person community of individuals who are excited about reading great books that uplift, empower and inspire.  Therefore we hope that you can join us from time to time, and share our book club with your family, friends and loved ones.

Who Should Join:  You should join C&C’s book club if you love to read fiction or non-fiction books about love, self-care, romance and personal development.  If you’ve read books like The Rules, Pride & Prejudice, and The Alchemist, and The Power of Now, then this book club is for you.

Who We Are:  We are a  supportive and fun loving community that enjoys reading books that empower, inspire and educate us.

The Plan:

Every month the group will read the select book of the month on their own.  Then, we meet virtually on the last Saturday of every month, or in person (at select locations).

The objective is to allow everyone nearly a month to purchase and read the book of the month!  You can order your copy of our book club pick from the list below (which, helps support our book club),  listen on audible,  or pick up a copy of the selected read at your local bookstore or library.

Types Of Books We’ll Read:

The types of books we will read will be non-fiction and fiction books about love and romance, dating and relationships, personal development, thrillers and mysteries.
