The Wide and Powerful Reach of Books



Many people want to be part of a book club and to connect with others about big ideas, but find themselves too busy or without access to the material. And yet, the written word  and the ideas it expresses can be immensely powerful and bring about remarkable change. Enter Book Interrupted, a book club for busy people to connect and one that celebrates life's interruptions.  We are a group of six friends that discuss non-fiction books over a 6 weeks cycle, with new content weekly. And it's more than that. We also talk about ourselves, the broader impact of the books on our lives, the relevance of the content to social issues, and the events that interrupt our attempts to read. By supporting each other with understanding, we allow ourselves to be vulnerable, and connect through honest discussion. 



The impact books have on our lives is not limited to the words written between the covers. Some books inspire new thoughts and send us to unexpected places. I explore my experience of the broader reach of each book's ideas in a weekly blog. Follow me every Sunday as I descend further and further in my recurring blog segment Down the Rabbit Hole at www.bookinterrupted.com/blog. 



Do you have a book that has impacted your life? Want a chance to have it reach others? We'd love to hear about it. Every third book is chosen by our listeners. Find our more at www.bookinterrupted.com/fans.
