Reading is an important activity for many Americans. Today, thousands of men, women and children belong to groups to discuss the books they read.
No one is sure how many Americans belong to reading groups called book clubs. Yet publishers and bookstores report that more and more people throughout the United States are joining them. Most of the clubs work the same way. Members read the same book at the same time. Then they meet to talk about the book. Members may be friends or people who live near each other. Or, they may be people who work together. Some book clubs develop from other organizations. Religious and community groups often establish book clubs.
Some Americans belong to reading groups on the Internet service. These groups include people around the world who communicate about books they read. These people send emails instead of meeting to discuss books. Book clubs may be for only women or only men. Or, they can be for husbands and wives together. Some are family groups where parents attend with their children. Children also may belong to book clubs of their own.

Reading
Reading is important for Americans. More and more people are joining book clubs which are formed by different people or organizations and for specific groups of readers.
Book clubs are really good things. Reading the same book and sharing what we think of it can help us know more.
Reading is also my favorite activity. My favorite novel is Gone with the Wind. It tells us a story about a woman, Scarlet, who is very brave and goes through a lot of difficulties but still faces life with courage. I always remember a famous sentence in this book “Tomorrow is another day.” This book encourages me to be brave. Whenever I am in trouble I will think of this sentence.
Personally, I think reading can really bring us benefits. It can enlarge our knowledge and make us more intelligent. Besides, it is helpful for our learning, especially for writing good compositions.
