About Roseto Book Club
Founded in 2018, Roseto Book Club began as a small gathering of friends who shared a passion for literature. Named after the charming Italian town known for its close-knit community, we've grown into a welcoming space where readers of all backgrounds come together.
Our mission is simple: to foster meaningful connections through the power of storytelling. We believe that books have the unique ability to bridge differences, spark conversations, and create lasting friendships.
