Books in Your Email: Online Book Clubs
Top line

A great way to sample a variety of books!

When you join our Online Book Clubs, you'll receive a portion of interesting and popular recent books in your daily e-mail. Each e-mail will be about 5 minutes worth of reading.

By the end of the week, you'll have received 2-3 chapters of the book, and every Monday a new book will start. For a list of upcoming titles, click here. You don't need a library card (you don't even need to live near the Duluth Public Library!).

At the bottom of each e-mail you'll find a link to the library catalog, where you can place a hold on the book if you'd like to finish reading it. There are several different book clubs to choose from.

Click here to join. You may join as many book clubs as you wish.

The beauty of fiction lies in the privilege to live life through another's skin, temporarily escaping our world yet safely re-entering reality again after the read. Upcoming titles Here is nonfiction at its finest. We'll taste a bit of politics, culture, people, places, philosophies, history, and more. This is real life as portrayed yesterday, lived today, and dreamed tomorrow.

Join the club today. Upcoming titles The rich suspense, intertwined characters, thickened plot, and nearly missed clues will keep you coming back for more. Each week you'll enjoy a new and exciting mystery by famous and just-getting-started authors.
