Book Club for the Book Hoes

0 followers

The Book Club for Book Hoes was established in July 2022 with our first book club meeting in August 2022 in Central Park. What started as a fun side-hobby has now turned into a full-time job and organization for creator and organizer Zoë Mahler, who runs five book clubs in-person each month and has now expanded to one book club virtually. We host literary and bookish-themed events monthly. To stay connected and get more info you can find the book hoes onInstagram,TikTok,Eventbrite, andSubstack. The Book Hoes Podcast is also available on all platforms you like to listen includingApple PodcastsandSpotify. Below you can find information about all the book clubs we offer.Book Hoes Who Brunch Book Clubmeets on the first Saturday of the month. We meet at a café in Bushwick and discuss any book that comes our way. There is no theme for this book club, other than to accommodate those of us book hoes who are morning people and love a good coffee. We focus mostly on generalized fiction, but have strayed a bit into thrillers, fantasy, and queer literature in the past. This book club is open and inclusive to all book hoes.Femmes Book Clubmeets on the first Sunday of the month. We read books with badass femme protagonists and meet in a bar in Union Square (near The Strand). We read books in any genre, but we primarily stick to general fiction and contemporary literature. This book club is open to all femmes and femme-presenting readers in their 20s and 30s.Murder, They Read Book Clubmeets the first Monday of the month on the Lower East Side. We read all things spooky - murder mysteries, thrillers, a little bit of horror, and general mysteries. This book club is open and inclusive to all book hoes.Romance Book Clubmeets the first Tuesday of the month at a romance bookstore in Park Slope. We read all romances of all kinds. Generally, all parties of the romance books we read are human (I know monster romance is big these days but we haven't gotten that creative yet). This book club is open and inclusive to all book hoes.Prose & Hoes Book Clubmeets on the first Thursday of the month at a bookstore on the Upper West Side. Don't let this name fool you, as this book club has evolved from reading prose to reading mostly all fantasy and YA literature interspersed with some other genres here and there. This book club is open and inclusive to all book hoes.BOOK CLUB FROM BEDis our virtual book club. We meet (virtually) on the third Sunday of the month at 8:30pm EST. This book club gets to vote for the books they read and a poll goes out at the end of every month to vote for the upcoming book. There is no specific guidelines for what we read, and we have read lots of different genres and books in the past. We have book hoes joining us from all over the world and our book club is structured virtually as a conversation and follow-up games and chance to chat as a group.Once you attend book club, you'll receive a follow-up email following your in-person book club (or virtual) that will provide you with a link to our internal Geneva app group chat. Geneva is very similar to Discord, but a bit more user-friendly. This Book Hoes group chat will provide you with an opportunity to connect with your fellow book hoes in between book clubs. There is a main group chat, a community board, and group chats for each book club. Tickets go on sale in the Geneva group chat an hour prior to going on sale to the public.As for our events, we try to have at least one or two events a month depending on venue availability. In the past, we have hosted book exchanges, happy hours, trivia nights, silent reading nights, read-a-thons, and many more. Our members are primarily women in their 20s and 30s, but we are welcoming to any and all readers who wish to connect and have a good time. Must be 21+ to attend.For more information regarding book clubs and events, you can find our FAQ in ourLinktreeon ourInstagram. Or, you can send an email to nycbookhoes@gmail.com.
