Where do I start?

We read 5-9 pages of the book every week and then discuss it in our weekly zoom-meeting.

For the zoom-meeting, the host will create some prompts on screen which are questions that the chapter brought up. These are start points but you can discuss anything else that the chapter brought up for you.

The prompts are designed to keep the discussion focused on the topic of the week so that every part of the book gets covered and understood. We have found the prompts helpful in making sure each theme of the chapter gets discussed and the conversation does not get distracted.

You do not have to have read the week’s chapter to attend, but it is of course extremely helpful to have done so.

Q&A

• Is this book club approved by/connected to Pete Walker the author?
• I've missed too many weeks to catch up on the reading, but can I still attend?
• Why does this group strongly recommend using "I" statements, as opposed to, "you" or “we” statements when speaking in the meetings?

Meetings last for 1h and you do not have to share or show yourself on camera.

Before your first meeting please
