Emberlight Tales: Online Book Club
About
Emberlight Tales: Quarterly Online Book Club 📚
Welcome to "Emberlight Tales," a quarterly online book club that brings together seekers of wisdom and self-reflection around a virtual hearth. Inspired by the ancient archetype of the medicine healer or elder sharing stories around a fire 🔥🌌, this book club is a sanctuary for individuals aged 18 and up who are eager to explore diverse perspectives and deepen their understanding of themselves and others.
Emberlight Tales aligns with Gilded Rose Spa’s mission to nurture the body, mind, and spirit by offering a space for reflective reading and meaningful discussion. Each quarter, we select a new book from a wide range of genres—including fiction, non-fiction, psychology, philosophy, self-discovery, and adventure—to encourage members to explore topics they might not typically gravitate towards. Discussions are open at any time, allowing for continuous engagement and thoughtful exchanges.
