Hi there! I want to start a book club that focuses on non-fiction reads -- mostly what I tend to read are books about health and wellness, travel, animals, biographies, business, and in general, real things. I feel like I am alone out there, because every other book club I see is totally based on reading novels and other works of fiction. Unfortunately, it is rare for me to really enjoy a novel!

Do you want a place where you can discuss your deepest feelings about yourself and the society we live in, in a supportive atmosphere? Many times, the culture we live in frowns upon sharing emotions, problems, anything that's really on our minds. We're expected to put up a front of "Everything's okay" all the time. But this just creates social isolation. The more isolated we are from each other, the more chance depression and anxiety have to breed. I am starting this group because I am not satis …
