WELCOME TO BOOK REVUE’S BOOK GROUP PAGE

Over the last several years the popularity of book groups as exploded. It is a wonderful experience to read a book and then share your thoughts and feelings with others. What makes the most interesting group meetings is when there is a wide range of reactions to a book.

Book Revue has over 100 registered book groups. The benefits of registering your book group with us are:

  • Each member will receive 20% off the list price of your reading group selection.
  • Free reading group guides will be made available to you and your group.
  • Your group will be invited to special events at the store just for book groups.
  • Your group has an open invitation to hold its meetings at our store. We can create a comfortable semi-private area for you at Book Revue.
  • Just contact Julianne Wernersbach at Juliewbookrevue@aol.com.


How do I get my book group registered with Book Revue?

It’s very simple. Come to Book Revue and complete a registration form. Anyone staff member at the cash registers can help you. Then each month let us know what selection you have made for the following month (we would like about three weeks notice to order books but it can be done in less time if necessary).

When the members of my group come to pickup the books, do we send a representative to get them or do we purchase them individually?

It’s up to the book group how you buy the books. You just need to be sure to mention that you are a book group member at the time you purchase the books.

We will order your books and place them on the store shelves. That way your members can simply find the books on the shelf each month.

Can my group hold meetings at Book Revue?

Absolutely! We encourage groups to meet here. Simply contact Julianne Wernersbach (631-271-1442 or Juliewbookrevue@aol.com) and let here know the number of members and the date and time that you would like to meet. We ask that you register the meeting with Julianne so that you that there aren’t any conflicts with other events.

I’m not in a book group but I would like to join one – can Book Revue help?

Yes! Book Revue provides a bulletin board for existing groups, newly formed groups and individuals looking to join a book group.

Does Book Revue have it’s own book group that I could join?

Yes! We meet the 3rd Wednesday of each month (we don’t meet in December) at 7:30 in the store. You don’t have to register, simply read the book and join us at the meeting.


Our book group is having difficulty in picking a book – can you help us decide what to read next?

To the right is a selection of books that we recommend for any book group. Most book groups tend to read paperbacks, which come out about a year after the hardcover release. The majority of the books that we list are paperbacks for that reason. We will occasionally include a hardcover.

The first three books listed are wonderful references if you are truly stuck on what to read. All three are written by book lovers. They give a brief description of most of the books and what they liked about them. Each is written in such a way that you can search out the index for an idea and then read the few pages devoted to the book to see if this is what you are looking for.

Also, check out our upcoming author events page. Many times we have just the perfect book group author coming. You could pick one of their previous books or the current book and join us for the author discussion. It will give you an opportunity to ask questions directly and will add some much to your own meeting.

Daughter of York
Anne Easter Smith
$12.95


When Margaret, daughter to Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York, and sister to Kings Edward IV and Richard III of England, falls in love with the queen's married brother and then becomes a pawn in Edward IV's political schemes, she is married off to the new duke of Burgundy and shipped off to a home in a new country. There, adventure and drama await the English princess.

Infidel
Ayaan Hirsi Ali
$15.00

Out in paperback 4/1/08!

In this profoundly affecting memoir from the internationally renowned author of The Caged Virgin, Ayaan Hirsi Ali tells her astonishing life story, from her traditional Muslim childhood in Somalia, Saudi Arabia, and Kenya, to her intellectual awakening and activism in the Netherlands, and her current life under armed guard in the West. Ultimately a celebration of triumph over adversity, Hirsi Ali's story tells how a bright little girl evolved out of dutiful obedience to become an outspoken, pioneering freedom fighter. As Western governments struggle to balance democratic ideals with religious pressures, no story could be timelier or more significant.
