The title of this book is misleading. This is less a step-by-step guide and more a "this-is-what-WE-did" told in anecdotal chapters. It fails to provide even loose rules for forming/moderating/enjoying a book club. Some of the stories from the various book club moderators inspire good ideas but not good enough to call this a book that fulfills its purpose.
