Book Club

There is something magical about a book – the promise of a journey that will take you somewhere else. An escape.

All great books provoke thought and need discussion and can be a catalyst for so many things – which is why we have our online book club for women.

Our central theme is “non fiction and women’s stories*”. Whether they are about travel, adventure, personal triumph or discovery, there is something to learn, see and discuss.

*but not always

We’ve been listening to your feedback, and we’re making a change!

Instead of spreading our book discussions over six weeks, we’ll now have one session per book with plenty of time to read the book in full.

This is your chance to dive in, share thoughts, and connect without the long commitment.

Simply reserve your place and you will be sent an email with all of the details about the meeting, which is conducted via our private Zoom link.

Established in 2020 our past books include; Your Second Life Begins When You Realise You Only Have One, Diamonds in the Dust, Life Undercover – coming of age in the CIA, Rising Heart,  The Mitford Sisters, BeWILDered, Alone in Antarctica, The Washerwoman’s Dream, Emotional Female, Wild by Nature,  A Woman Makes A Plan and Discovering a Life Without Limits, Things I Learned from Falling, In Order to Live, The Yellow Envelope, Windswept, Dancing with the Machine, A Woman of No Importance, An Elephant in My Kitchen, The Year of Yes, Miss Benson’s Beetle, Adventurous Spirit, Aphrodite’s Breath, The Salt Path, Steps Out of Time, Nowhere for very Long, Grandma Gatewood’s Walk & Sister Viv, Lands of Lost Borders, Do Not Go Gentle. Go To Paris. Pack Light, A journey to find myself.

BeWILDered was the spark for our 45 minutes for 45 days Facebook Group and Alone in Antarctica was the catalyst for our Tales for the Trails conversation with author and member Christine Jackman about her book, Turning Down the Noise.

Book for August: Full Tilt. Ireland to India with a bicycle. By Dervla Murphy

How does it work?

How does online Book Club work?
  • We meet online for one hour to discuss the book: “The Year of Living Danishly: Uncovering the Secrets of the World’s Happiest Country” by Helen Russell
  • It’s ALL INCLUSIVE of your membership, so simply register to be part of it.
  • Once you have registered, we send you a PRIVATE and SECURE Zoom link to access the meeting.
  • Then the magic happens and you can see and hear everyone in book club – from wherever you are
  • Join in the conversation, lead by your C.R.E.W Leader, and have some fun.

What Technology Do I Need?

Here’s what happens when you book your spot:  
  • You will receive a confirmation email and SMS with the links to access the Zoom session at the designated starting time.
  • You will also receive a reminder email and SMS 30 minutes before the start time with the links again.
It’s quite simple to connect and don’t be put off if you haven’t done this before. Here’s a Quick Overview:
  • You need a mobile phone, tablet or desktop/laptop
  • You might like to use headphones – this is optional and a personal choice
  • You may need to download the Zoom App (free) so please do so if it asks. We suggest you do this a day or so before the session.
If you have any questions before booking, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help! Phone 0412 121 420 or email info@womensfitnessadventures.com
