Goldsboro Books PREM1ER Book Club: Celebrating 20 years. A Testament t
Twenty years ago, I started a book club with a simple idea: to curate and share exceptional fiction with people who love books as much as I do. It was also an opportunity to expand my reading habit. Rather than keep reading in my comfort zone, I wanted to explore other genres and books I might not have read otherwise.
