Great Reading Materials
Using the materials makes it easy to be part of a group. Women who consistently use the materials tell us they have a richer experience of Well-Read Mom and are more connected to our mission. Our materials include the following:
The Reading Companion
The Reading Companion is a great resource to accompany your reading. It includes author biographies, book reflections, discussion questions, literary analysis, and space to record your favorite quotes, and notes from your meetings.
Monthly Audio Resources
Each month, Well-Read Mom provides two audio reflections to open and close your group meeting. These audios deepen your reading experience by introducing each book, sharing why it was chosen, and highlighting key themes to look for. If you miss a meeting, don't worry - every member can listen any time.
Well-Read Mom Summer Magazine
A beautiful, full-color magazine filled with member reflections, feature articles on reading, motherhood, leisure, and culture, and a preview of the membership year to come!
