Reading 7

What do you do when you read a really good book? You tell people about it. You tell them they should read it. Maybe you know how hard it can be not to talk about a good book to a friend who has not read the book yet. You want to tell your friend what the book is about, but you do not want to ruin it by saying too much. If you Love to talk about good books, it is a good idea to join a book club. In a book club, everyone decides on a book to read. Then everyone reads it at the same time. When everyone has finished the book, you can get together and discuss it. This way, everyone has read the book, so you do not have to worry about saying too much. Another great thing about a book club is that you can hear different people's points of view. Or, you might realize something about the story that you had not thought about. Joining a book club is also a great way to meet new people. However, when you are looking for a book club to join, it is important to choose the right one. Make sure that the people in the group like the same kind of books that you do. And make sure that the people in your group read at the same speed as you do. If you read fast, you do not want to wait weeks and weeks for your friends to finish. And if you read slowly, you do not want to miss the meeting because you have not finished the book. Also, you do not want to go to a meeting if you have not finished the book because it could ruin the ending for you when people discuss it.
