Want to read with Michigan Public staffers? Join our book club: Michigan Public Reads.
Throughout the year we'll be reading featured books with Michigan connections. Our goal is to share our love of books with you - and develop deeper connections with readers across Michigan.
Members will also be invited to a book club event for every book we read! We'll let you know when and where we'll be having discussions. There will also be virtual options - so if you can't make it, you can join us online.
