It’s a great way to stay organized with thoughts and questions while reading, especially if your book club shares copies of books or uses library books that don’t allow for scribbling notes in the margins! The book club kit we received contained notebooks, which I thought was a fabulous idea. This is Where I Leave You isn’t a women’s fiction novel, which tend to be popular book club picks, but it’s a book that moms will enjoy. The intelligent humor in Tropper’s book is a backdrop for important discussions about the lifelong journey of being a parent and the responsibilities parents have to their children - and vice versa.

Relationships are at the heart of This is Where I Leave You, both between parents and their children and between the grown siblings in the story. Family dysfunction runs through the character relationships in This is Where I Leave You, giving your book club a lot to discuss - one of the five best tips for a book club.

With an all-star cast, the movie version of This is Where I Leave You is a must-see movie this fall - we’d watch Tina Fey in anything! Before seeing the movie, gather your girls together for a book club discussion about Jonathan Tropper’s novel.
