Share a passion for books and reading with like-hearted bibliophiles (book lovers) in recovery. This group chooses books to read as a collective and gathers monthly to discuss and connect.
Welcome to the SHE RECOVERS Reads Book Club!
We hope this space can be an opportunity to connect, support, and empower each-other through our shared love of READING in RECOVERY!
Our theme for August is ‘Anti-Racism: What’s Recovery Got to Do With It?’
We will officially kick off SHE RECOVERS Reads with the following books:
Ijemoa Oluo, So You Want to Talk About Race
Toni Morrison, The Bluest Eye
Sonya Renee Taylor, The Body is Not an Apology
We hope these titles may serve as an opportunity to:
– Examine together issues related to race
– Deepen our commitment to dismantling racism and healing the wounds inflicted upon Black, Indigenous, and people of color
– Explore stories of recovery, resilience, and advocacy so we may learn how we can contribute to creating welcoming and supportive spaces for all.
Discussion of the book within this group is casual and can be done in any way that serves you and your recovery! Read one book at a time – or all three at once! You are also welcome to post reflections, questions, insights, edges, create a group discussion event, or go live – we are grateful to be connected through our love of books and learning.
