It’s July, and that means it’s time for a new Spotlight Selection for the hoopla Book Club! Our choice for the summer quarter is The Bear by Andrew Krivak, a National Book Award finalist for his 2011 novel, The Sojourn. The Bear is a post-apocalyptic novel, at least in that it opens at a time when humanity is down to just two people on Earth, but it is not the expected dystopia that label would suggest. Readers and listeners will find this book to be unique, peaceful, reflective, and rewarding.
Visit the hoopla Book Club Hub for plenty of resources for your book club, including more on why we love The Bear, an exclusive Q&A with author Andrew Krivak, additional selections for a variety of readers, and more. And with in-person meetings difficult at the moment due to COVID-19, it’s easy to have book discussions on social media—use the hashtag #hooplabookclub, and feel free to include us @hoopladigital. We can’t wait to hear what you and your patrons think of The Bear.
Happy reading!
