Book Club

[Ubarrow]

Does anyone know what book is the subject of the Book Club on the Transatlantic 3rd January from New York?

Seems like a well kept secret!

I’d love it if there was a list of book club books on all of the ships.  Hoping there will be a book club on the Queen Victoria in the end of January.

I found this, but it doesn’t have my crossing - M902 - listed.

Ubarrow,

If you find a link for 2019 book club selections, could you please come back and post it here. I'm on M910 and would love to read the selection for "my" crossing in advance.

Thank you, 

AZ

I've never thought about joining in with the Book Club.  Would love to hear from people who have and what it was like.  Anything to 'cerebral' would rule me out - I'm on holiday after all 🤣

I'm on Q911 and I also would love to be able to join in a book club on board.

We were on QV during Nov/Dec and queried the book club with the Librarian.

 

Despite showing him a screen shot of all the scheduled books, he reliably informed us the book club ceased after the last World Voyage.

 

We weren’t too bothered because in recent years the book club meetings had become self-hosting anyway.

I hope they start it up again for this year’s World Cruise. Self hosting doesn’t bother me as long as the book is available and meeting times posted.

Don’t hold your breath on that happening.

 

We found it strange how there was NO book club on our return 25 day transatlantic on QV but the librarian did kindly let us borrow paperback books for the two advertised books that we showed him online.

A year or so ago the book club would fill a small room. However, on our journey over to the US in November it was just me and the librarian. I wondered if it was because the book was a little difficult to get through (River of Ink) but wonder now if it’s just because no one knows about it?

Surely it can’t be difficult to give it a bit of a plug in the daily bulletin?
