I’ll Name This Book Club Later

Fiction that hurts a little, provokes a lot, and refuses easy answers.

This is a biweekly, remote book club for people who actually read the book and want to talk about it honestly.

We focus on fiction that grapples with real philosophical, psychological, moral, and social questions—stories that linger, unsettle, and force you to sit with ambiguity rather than hand you a neat moral at the end.

***

### What this book club is

Reading is mandatory. This isn’t a vibes-based discussion group.

Fiction with depth. Power, identity, love, violence, meaning, freedom, society.

Honest dialogue over performative politeness. Respect matters—but truth comes first.

A biweekly pace. Enough time to read thoughtfully, not rush.

***

### What this book club is not

Not a speed-reading challenge
Not a book summary circle
Not a place to dominate conversations or posture intellectually
Not a space where disagreement is treated as harm

Disagreement is expected. Curiosity is required.

***

### How books are chosen

To avoid only reading the most obvious or popular picks, book selection blends:

• Member nominations
• Light structure (rotation or chance-based selection)
• An emphasis on books we might not choose on popularity alone

The goal is discovery—not consensus.

***

### Who this is for

You’ll probably enjoy this group if you:

• Love fiction that leaves you uncomfortable in a productive way
• Enjoy thinking out loud and listening carefully
• Are open to having your interpretations challenged
• Believe stories are one of the best ways to explore philosophy without lectures

You don’t need a literature degree. You do need to read.
