GET BALANCED

Do you love to read?
Join GSEM’s Virtual Book Club and blog with other Girl Scouts about your thoughts and feelings about books.
You will have to check the blog twice a month to participate in this group.
Together, the group will chose books to read that are also movies. It is possible that if a book is chosen to read and the movie is coming out we will try to meet at the theater to see it together. Most of the time, we will watch the movies on our own before we gather online to discuss the things we liked and didn't like about the two. Each book will be a 6-week session.
Once registered you can participate in just one book or in all for the year.
