The UL Book Club

We have The UL Book Club on the last Sunday of every month at 2PM Pacific / 5PM Eastern. The next meeting is October 27th.

We alternate our book selections in four phases that expose us to two parts non-fiction and 1 part each of fiction and classics, using the following cadence.

1. Non-fiction
2. Fiction
3. Non-fiction
4. Classic
5. Back to top

You can get the latest Book Club event time and date within UL Chat, in the top left of the interface under Events.
