Book club
How does the book club work?
The UVic Alumni Book Club gathers online in a private discussion forum—where members share thoughts, insights and lively discussions about our current reads.
- We dedicate two months to each book, so our pace allows participation even during busy seasons. The five books for this year will be chosen to captivate and inspire.
- Joining the book club is free. You just need to pick up a copy of the book.
