Report Finds 65% Of Book Clubs Just Wine Drinking Circles

A leaked survey from the Literacy & Leisure Institute reveals that most book clubs devote less than 10% of their time to discussing literature, and the rest to consuming boxed wine and gossiping. In Brooklyn, one member admitted she hasn�t read a single assigned book in four years but never misses a meeting. Researchers label the trend �grape-lit,� where novels serve primarily as props for Chardonnay-fueled therapy sessions. Ironically, the most heated debates usually involve whose turn it is to bring snacks, not plot points. The report concludes that modern book clubs function less as literary circles and more as subsidized social hours with ISBN numbers. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
