Jim And Joel’s Book Club

Two brothers who share a lifelong love for Fantasy/Sci-Fi books decided to start a book club! Jim and Joel will be reading books in weekly chunks; breaking down what they liked, didn’t like, characters that stood out, and make some predictions (unless they’ve read the book before...) We hope you’ll join us, read along, and send us any comments at JimAndJoelBookClub@gmail.com
