How It Works

We have partnered with Washington State University Alumni Association to create a virtual book club for alumni, faculty and staff, covering lifelong learning, personal growth, novels and other topics in which the participants are interested. The book club will connect through a private forum where all participants can discuss the current book and network with each other. Joining is completely free; you just have to get a copy of the book to enjoy. The book club will read one book every two months so that you will have plenty of time for each book.
