About Our Book Club

A community of readers dedicated to exploring diverse voices and the stories that shape our understanding of the world.

Our Mission

Diverse Reads Book Club was founded with a simple belief: the books we read shape how we see the world. By intentionally selecting literature that represents a wide range of voices—across cultures, identities, and experiences—we create opportunities for deeper understanding and empathy. Our mission is to foster a community where readers can discover new perspectives, engage in meaningful discussions, and grow together through the power of storytelling.

What We Value

Diverse Perspectives

We seek out stories from varied backgrounds, cultures, and experiences to broaden our worldview.

Thoughtful Discussion

Our curated discussion questions help guide meaningful conversations that go beyond surface-level analysis.

Inclusive Community

Every reader is welcome here. We believe great literature belongs to everyone.

Literary Excellence

We choose books that challenge, inspire, and showcase exceptional storytelling craft.

"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one."
— George R.R. Martin

Why These Books?

Our collection of twelve books was curated with intention and care. Each selection meets our criteria for discussion-worthy literature:

  • Diverse Representation: Stories from authors of various backgrounds, featuring characters and settings from around the world.
  • Rich Themes: Complex ideas and questions that inspire thoughtful conversation and personal reflection.
  • Literary Merit: Exceptional writing that demonstrates the craft of storytelling at its finest.
  • Accessibility: Books that are engaging and approachable while still offering depth and substance.

From the multigenerational saga of Korean immigrants in Pachinko to the creative partnership explored in Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, each book offers unique insights into the human experience.
