The weather is getting warmer and your teacher just rolled this bad boy in and you are THRIVING. Plan to join us for one of our *twelve* April 2025 book clubs! Check out the coming month’s picks (and the meeting dates) to be prepared for signups which will take place on Monday, March 31st, 2025 at 12 pm EST on the dot!
Please use the Sign Up Genius linked above to register for the book club of your choice (dates are outlined below & in the sign up!). Please consider two things once you have successfully registered for the book club of your choice:
1. Upon registration or a book's publication date, each reader has one (1) week to purchase the accompanying book from The Book & Cover, located at 1310 Hanover Street, Chattanooga, TN, 37405. Purchases on bookshop.org or libro.fm do not qualify! If you do not purchase your book within a week, we will release your spot to a reader on the waitlist. Readers who have previously purchased their book from The Book & Cover may confirm their spot with proof of purchase. Readers who already own the title and do not wish to duplicate may confirm their spot with a purchase of a book for equal or greater value.
2. Readers are limited to participation in one (1) book club per month to allow for the maximum number of folks to participate!
NEW FOR 2025
PLEASE USE THE SIGN-UP GENIUS WAITLIST FEATURE TO SIGN UP FOR A WAITLIST. THE BOOK & COVER WILL NOT BE MANAGING WAITLISTS OUTSIDE THIS PLATFORM.
