Netflix Book Club: Everything You Need to Know
Did you know Netflix boasts its very own Book Club?
I have always been talking about Books > Netflix! And why not!? While Netflix is all about consuming some random content and reality through the lens of others’ narratives, books provide a unique perspective and the freedom to unleash your imagination.
But recently, something changed my perspective from Books > Netflix to Netflix + Books. I came across the Netflix Book Club!
The concept of this Netflix Book Club is as simple as Read, Watch, and let’s dive into the discussion! True to Netflix’s style, the emphasis is on delivering top-notch entertainment.
How does it work?
Each month, a captivating title takes centre stage, inviting you on a journey to dive into the pages of a book, savour the on-screen adaptation, or indulge in both. But here’s the real magic — you’re not just a spectator; you’re an integral part of the experience.
Your Book Club host guides you through candid conversations with the stars and masterminds behind the scenes. Together, they unravel the intricacies of characters, explore thematic depths, and spill the secrets of transforming a beloved book into a lavish TV show. It’s the ultimate backstage pass into the creative process, where the burning questions we all share find their answers.
Curious about whether the ending will stay faithful to the original? Eager to know who will step into the shoes of the main characters? Wondering if fresh faces will grace the narrative? Netflix Book Club has the inside scoop, ensuring your favourite stories are not just watched but celebrated in a community of fellow enthusiasts. Here the magic of storytelling extends beyond the pages!
Here’s the deal — this book club operates without any rules. There’s no mandatory reading, no specific amount to finish, no trivial queries, and definitely no wrong answers.
And I loved this book club concept. It is pretty different from the book clubs I am part of. I am not a regular Netflix person but whenever I sit in front of the TV, I avoid the temptation of watching brand-new Netflix series. I prefer to watch shows that entertain me and are also a book adaption in the form of a movie or series.
