I tried joining a book club last fall, through the library. In the end the only real people who showed up, besides myself, were library employees who mostly talked about in-house drama and gossip. I felt horridly awkwardly out of place and uncomfortable and "forgot" to pick up the next book after the third meeting. I don't think they ever noticed I stopped coming because they have all my contact information (phone, email, etc) from when I signed up and have never once tried to contact me about it.
Where did you learn about your book club? I wonder if there's a place I can find something similar in my area and I just don't know how to look for it...
