I am an experienced book group discussion leader with a PhD in literature from NYU who can help make the experience of reading books with friends easy, thought-provoking, and pleasurable. I work to focus your group’s discussion, and I provide historical & literary contexts so that everyone learns more and has more fun. I’m knowledgeable about a range of literature—from Leo Tolstoy’sAnna Karenina to Eleanor Catton’s The Luminaries (winner of this year’s prestigious Man Booker Prize). Feel free to contact me if you have an established book group already or if you’ve got one in the making. Reasonable rates. Email Stephanie at Stephaniehop@gmail.com.
