  1. Hello everyone,

    I found a great reading club for Tolkien Fans, it's called the Tolkien Society and as they explain they are "The Tolkien Society is an international organisation registered in the U. K. as an educational charity, number 273809. Our aim is to encourage and further interest in the life and works of the late Professor J.R.R. Tolkien"

    This is a greta place to find out other aspects about the work of Tolkien, you will find people that has been reading his books for long years and gather to talk about them. In this webpage you will find relevant information of Middle Earth, discussions on different subjects like ¿Do BAlrogs have wings? and events were Tolkien fans gather to celebrate the work of J.R.R Tolkien.

    Here is the link to the webpage:

  2. well. I found this blog called Book Club Girl which is administrated by a common woman passionated with books, so there she shares great books, news and tips with "book club girls everywhere" (but I think it could be interesting for boys if they want to know more about girl's tendencies in literacy)

  4. Hello Everyone,

    I found a very nice reading club for teen's from the Hong Kong public university that has some interesting objectives like to promote reading in this specific range of age, so it will have positive consequences in their lives and personal and intellectual growth.
    Besides the proposed activities include reading materials that could be printed or electronic versions of books, chapters or excerpts of books, newspapers, periodical articles, selected articles and multimedia materials on the related topics so people could discuss about it and share ideas that are very nice ways to meet and interact with people who have similar interests (and age) and finally the time those teenagers will spend in this meetings is very short, allowing it be a pleasure activity that will help them to have different perspectives about many subjects in life.
    This is the link of the page:

    Regards,
