Barnes & Noble announces new book club in stores

Retail bookseller Barnes & Noble recently announced the launch of the Barnes & Noble Book Club -- a national book club designed to bring readers in communities across the US together to discuss some of the greatest books being published.

The company will host a free Book Club night seasonally at its 632 stores nationwide, which will be led by its expert booksellers and feature exclusive content and special in-store promotions for book club members. Bestselling author Meg Wolitzer’s novel, The Female Persuasion, has been chosen as the first book club pick for the inaugural Book Club night, which will take place on May 2, from 6pm-7pm local time, at stores all over the US.

“Many book clubs and reading groups already meet at Barnes & Noble stores across the country, but customers have let us know that they would love to participate in an official Barnes & Noble Book Club,” said Liz Harwell, director of merchandising at Barnes & Noble. “That’s why we are so pleased to bring readers together to engage in a national conversation about books in a way that only Barnes & Noble can.”

Wolitzer’s novel engages readers in a timely discussion around women, work and power, said the retailer. As part of the new Barnes & Noble Book Club, the company is offering customers an exclusive edition of the book that includes a special Reading Group Guide and an essay by the author. Customers who come to the free Book Club discussion on May 2 will also receive one free regular, tall, hot or iced coffee and one free cookie from the café, and one signed copy of the book will be given away.
