The Hummingbird Book Club is an engaged community of people who love to read feel good factor books.
Each month a book is chosen that we read and discuss as a group and you are invited to join in the conversation. There are also regular reviews written to guide and inspire your next read.
The Hummingbird Book Club founders may hail from opposite sides of the country, but they were brought together by an impulsive decision made late in 2012. Bev James, a successful businesswoman, mentor, and Sunday Times best-selling author launched a competition to win six months mentoring with her. Hilary Steel, Hils an impulsive and overly excitable fledgling magazine publisher and events company director at the time, entered the competition.
A month later Hils was informed she had indeed won Bev! So began a connection that would turn into a friendship worthy of the happy endings in the books we so love here.
A chance Instagram post started a conversation between the two about books that made you feel good. They talked the books they were reading, sharing what they thought of them and suggesting which one the other might like to read next. The conversations became longer talking about certain characters and wondering what they were be doing now. It was wonderful to break from a busy world and relax knowing that ultimately, there will be a happy ending.
Together, Bev and Hils have created ‘a Happy Home for Book Lovers’, which is just that! A place where conversations about books and characters remain open long after the final page has been turned.
We'd love to hear from you
