Book Clubs
I have had the pleasure of meeting with numerous book clubs in the Tri-State area and have even spoken to book clubs elsewhere via speakerphone. I love the chance to talk one-on-one with readers, and would happily visit your book club in person, or arrange for a telephone call. Please email me if you are interested in scheduling a book club visit. Here are some comments from clubs I’ve visited:
It was a pleasure to welcome [Yona] on Monday, January 11, 2010. We thoroughly enjoyed [her] in-depth presentation and discussion of the writer’s perspective and our “Question and Answer Period” gave us many insights into [her] characters and their story. Reading BREAKING THE BANK was like applying a salve to our chapped lips on these cold winter days on Long Island. We look forward to spending many more days reading other books by Yona Zeldis McDonough. —Donna Diamond (Book Discussion Leader) & “The Literary Gallery” at Barnes & Noble, Huntington, NY
Lynn & her book club in O'Fallon, Missouri
Tuesday, October 13th was a most special day for our reading group The B&N Bookies!!!! Our reading group meeting was graced with the presence of Yona Zeldis McDonough, the author of Breaking The Bank. This book was our October read and it was a terrific choice for our reading group. … is a page turner that lends itself to a reading group. … Not only was this book quite a treat, but the icing on this cake was having the author there to enhance our discussion. Breaking The Bank is written with humor, intelligence and charm and this must be seen as a reflection of the author herself. Yona added insight to our meeting and responded to our questions and thoughts with vivaciousness. Hands down, our reading group loved Breaking The Bank and we greatly appreciated having Yona Zeldis mcDonough join us. —Bonnie Bender, Staten Island, NY
