Being a parent or guardian can be a wonderful, enriching, and rewarding experience — but we all need a little escape every once in a while! That’s why Nebraska Home Pediatrics & Parents is adding something new to our pediatrics resources — a monthly book club!
There are so many benefits to joining a book club! From personal enrichment to socialization, a book club is a great way to relax, meet new people, and spend some time on yourself.
By joining the Nebraska Home Pediatrics & Parents Book Club, you’ll have the opportunity to:
Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby.
Each month, we’ll pick a new book to add to our little community library. While we know there are many parenting books and other high-quality pediatric resources we could be reading, the Nebraska Home Pediatrics & Parents Book Club is designed to be an escape from the hard work it takes to be a parent. We’ll be sticking to works of fiction for book club, just to keep things on the lighter side! Some of the benefits of reading for fun include:
Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business.
Lily and her ex-husband, Ryle, have just settled into a civil coparenting rhythm when she suddenly bumps into her first love, Atlas, again. After nearly two years separated, she is elated that for once, time is on their side, and she immediately says yes when Atlas asks her on a date.
Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research
The books chosen for book club will be housed here at the Nebraska Home Pediatrics & Parents clinic, along with our other pediatric resources. To sign up, simply choose a book and fill out the form at the bottom of the page, in order to reserve your book copy! Once requested and approved, books can be picked up from our clinic. We will only hold copies for up to 72 hours before notifying the next person in line.
We ask that books be returned within 7-10 days, in order to give book club members waiting in line a chance to read the books before the meeting. Meetings will be held monthly at various coffee shops and other meeting spots around Omaha.
The Nebraska Home Pediatrics & Parents book club is for anyone in the greater Omaha area! If your child sees us for medical services and you are looking for a feeling of community and a place to set your stress aside, our book club is for you!
While our goal is for everyone to read the same book and discuss it, we know that life can get hectic. We encourage you to join us for the meetings, even if you aren’t able to open a book! Let’s be honest – we are really creating a “book club” to give us a reason to get out of the house and have some time to ourselves. Nebraska Home Pediatrics & Parents book club is a time for relaxation, community and fun!
Even if you’re simply curious about book club, we’d love to have you join us! Contact us today at (402) 917-6944 with any questions you might have about this new, friendly pediatric resource.
