Current book club guidelines/criteria : This book club is comprised of members of the American Women’s Club of Brussels and the American Club of Brussels. We look for great authors who write in English, available for purchase in shops or online, not more than 300-400 pages, and have a preference for those that have a score of at least 4/5 on Goodreads.  The books do not have to be recent, they can also be ones you loved that we might have missed.  We meet in the second week of the month, often on Wednesdays at either 1pm or 7pm, at a host’s home or a cafe/restaurant, in the greater Brussels area.
