Discussing favorite books is a great way to make new friends, but with many book clubs it can be difficult to become a part of the group.  Join us for “Books with Friends” in a monthly exploration of favorite books to share among an inclusive group of Chesapeake Forum friends.  

Anyone with a love of books and a desire to participate in an in-depth, moderated discussion about a favorite book is welcome at any time, whether for one book, or all.  

We continue 2026 with the following offerings:

• April book: “Rules of Civility” by Amor Towles.  
• May book: “Frozen River” by Ariel Lawhon
• June book: “James” by Percival Everett
