Emirates Literature Foundation: Fiction Book Club

The Emirates Literature Foundation Book Club is a monthly meet-up focusing on fiction. Book selections vary across genres, helping members explore books outside their usual interests. It also gives readers a chance to enjoy one of the best parts of finishing a book: discussing it with others!

July's pick will help you beat the heat as you enjoy the cool indoors while trying to untangle the timey-wimey mystery central to Gillian McAllister's 'Wrong Place Wrong Time.' The Reese Witherspoon's Book Club pick introduces readers to Jen, a concerned mother trying to prevent her teenage son from becoming a murderer. The catch? Each day she wakes up one more day in the past, slowly moving further away from the very future she's trying to stop. But will she be solve the puzzle?

Previous selections include more popular fare like R.F. Kuang's 'Babel' and Bonnie Garmus' 'Lessons in Chemistry,' alongside niche favourites like Noor Naga's 'If an Egyptian Cannot Speak English' or Mookie Katigbak-Lacuesta's 'Assembling Alice.'

Is fiction not quite your thing? You can register for our quarterly non-fiction book club here.
