About the Virtual Adventure

Introducing our New ABTB Book Club Series!

Adventures by the Book is delighted to welcome 7 new ABTB Ambassadors, who are helping us launch our new ABTB Book Club Series. The monthly series will alternate between virtual Zoom events, in person San Diego, California events, and in person Harrison, New York, events. Each month, our Ambassadors will select a new NovelNetwork author and book to discuss, and we will send out invites for you to join us as you are able, whether in person or virtually.

We invite you to join us at our inaugural virtual event, featuring New York Times bestselling author Kate Quinn and Canadian bestselling author Janie Chang, in a moderated book club discussion with 3 of our esteemed Ambassadors, Simon Chibuk (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada), Jennifer Erickson (Chicago, Illinois), and Dorothy Minor (Broken Arrow, Oklahoma), and YOU!

Whether you are already part of an existing book club, or have been wanting to join one, our ABTB Book Club is open to all. Read the book, which we encourage, or not, if you don’t have time, but come join us anyway and be part of the shared reading experience.

*Pre-order your copy of The Phoenix Crown (below) and we will ship it to you, so that you can read it prior to the event.
