The past year was obviously really flipping weird, as all of our chapters have had to switch to virtual meetings. (The irony of creating book clubs so that we can connect offline, only to be shoved back online anyway!) Fortunately, all of our book clubs have been quick to adapt, since everyone’s health and safety is the absolute top priority. We’re even starting up new chapters virtually — hi, Chicago! — so rest assured, the FYA Book Club will always be around in one form or another.
