Book club session featuring hot new titles and noteworthy favorites at BookPeople.
BookPeople hosts another session of the New & Noteworthy Book Club on Thursday, July 30, in Austin. It's one of those regular fixtures on the bookstore's calendar, and the format stays the same: a gathering centered on the books that have been making waves lately.
The club does exactly what the name suggests. The focus is on hot new titles—the ones hitting the shelves right now—alongside noteworthy favorites that have managed to hold their own over time. It's a mix of the brand new and the books that keep coming up in conversation, so you get a look at what's current without losing sight of the titles that have earned their place. If you've been keeping an eye on the new releases but haven't quite found a way into them, this is a good place to start.
Because it's a book club, the whole thing is built around talking through the books with other readers. You'll hear what people are actually making of these titles, rather than just reading a blurb on the back of a cover. It's a chance to hear a few different takes on the same page and maybe walk away with a new title on your list.
