Here’s the secret about book clubs: They’re not just about the books. That's why we’re getting ready to launch the Los Angeles Times Book Club, just in time for summer reading.
Jason Ham and Baily Pham enjoy reading together during the annual Los Angeles Times Festival of Books at USC on April 22, 2018. They’re about getting off Facebook. Getting off the couch. Getting out of the house. A good book is a great excuse to bring people together. Add a glass of wine and the conversation flows.to talk about what they’re reading. This past weekend, more than 150,000 people turned out for the festival, which wrapped up Sunday night on the USC campus.
The focus will be on books and authors relevant to Southern California and the West — books that illuminate and explain our unique landscape, culture, identity and history. We’ll delve into fiction, nonfiction and memoir, bringing in world-class storytellers to explore such topics as immigration and entertainment, food and travel, criminal justice and technology, sports and social issues.
