Bookish clubs I would join

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is a Freebie. I'm going with bookish clubs I would join but mostly I just enjoy making up titles. For more Top Ten Tuesday, visit That Artsy Reader Girl here.

01 - The Guild of Notorious Skim Readers — enjoy skim-reading with others who also think it's okay to skip the boring parts

02 - The Chapters and Cakes League — come and eat cake and maybe read a chapter or two of a book but mostly eat cake

03 - The Sisterhood of Literary Feminine Accuracy — complain about the mistakes of female characters in books written by male authors

04 - The Fellowship of the Tome — read chunky books and complain about their length

05 - The Association of Sleepy Readers — pick books, complain about them and then vote not to read them, then take a nap

06 - The Spook Society — get together with other scaredy cats and read scary books that are maybe not too scary

07 - The Civilized Society of Murder Mystery Maniacs — join other murder mystery lovers in reading and nitpicking murder mysteries

08 - The Society of Obstinate & Persnickety Readers — For people who are very, very picky of what they read

09 - Miss Marple's Knit & Snitch Bookish Society — come and join us for some knitting and snitching and maybe even read a book

10 - The League of Trifle Knowledge — join us in the search for the meanings of life in the small corners of bookish worlds

What book club would you like to join?

    1. Debra She Who Seeks: I think if that club exist, there will be a rise in cake sells but probably not books.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  7. Oh, my! These club names are absolutely delightful. xD I need to borrow your services to help us name programs at my library! We're so bad at it, and these are all eye-catching and fantastic lol. I'm jealous. I especially love the Fellowship of the Tome!

    Here's my TTT post.

  9. Nice! I love the sound of The Fellowship of the Tome. And the murder mystery one too.

    1. Greg: That fellowship one - I was kind of referring to the 'Lord of the ring' as it's really one chunky book. I'm more into murder mysteries now so a club like that would be nice.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  11. I LOVE THIS TOPIC! If you don't mind, I'm going to steal this for a future TTT topic! I'll credit you, of course. This is so much fun! Can there please be a book club that involves cake? I'd join in a heartbeat.

  12. Oh my! Such a fun theme for this week's freebie... I will wait for Jana to put it up for a future TTT and in the meantime, come up with names for book clubs though I am not sure how I can top your list ...
    I would join each and every one of these clubs and #10 is where I spend a lot of time already :)
    Here is my TTT

  13. These are hilarious! I'd join any of them, but especially the cake one.

    1. Aj @Read All The Things: You never know how much people like cake until a club is formed. Maybe someone should just form a cake club, I would join.

  14. This is so funny! I've never been in a book club but I would probably enjoy the Sisterhood of Literary Feminine Accuracy and like sharing tidbits with the League of Trifle Knowledge!

    1. Jeane: I've never been in a book club either but I really do like the idea of people getting together to discuss books or other things.

  15. "08 - The Society of Obstinate & Persnickety Readers — For people who are very, very picky of what they read"
    Oh, this has my name written on it! 😂 I love them all though, and you were so creative with the titles.

    1. Roberta R.: #8 is me too. Somehow it's harder to choose a book to read then to actually read them.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.
