Book Clubs



Book clubs serve as an important connector between individuals and ideas. As such, JBC is committed to promoting not only Jewish books, but also Jewish ideas. Book clubs are a platform to engage with one’s community and inspire conversation around those ideas. Whether your book club is interested in exclusively reading Jewish books or a few Jewish books throughout the year, JBC has the resources to help. Maybe you’re inspired by contemporary Jewish ethics? How about Israeli literature or historical fiction?  Perhaps you are interested in books that relate the American Jewish experience. Or maybe you just like memoirs. Whatever your interest, JBC has a book for you and the resources to take you to the next level.
