Fiction book club meets the first Wednesday
of every month at 6pm
This book club reads a variety of new and recently released literary fiction. Look for titles trending in the news and those being whispered about in literary circles. We read an assortment of authors in both hardcover and paperback, and we'll fit in recent award winners and authors that are speaking in Bend. Fiction Book Club is led by our store owner, Cassie Clemans.
Currently, we are meeting in a hybrid format, both in-person at Roundabout Books and through the Zoom link provided below. Please join us either way!
