MOD MOD MOD!
So I was thinking about starting a book club with my friends over the summer and I was wondering if you had advice on what books to read and how to get the book club started

Hey girl,

Why not read something that's popular, like Harry Potter or the Hunger Games? Something everyone's heard of and possibly already read is a good place to start.
