WHERE STORIES COME ALIVE
Step into the world of fantasy literature with us. Enjoy engaging discussions, monthly meetings, and a rich calendar of events tailored for book lovers.
Who We Are
Hillsboro Fantasy Book Club serves as a vibrant part of the Hillsboro community. We host monthly in-person meetings (typically 15-20 participants) and support an online community through our website, Facebook, and Instagram. Our goal is to offer a rich atmosphere for fantasy enthusiasts to engage and grow together.
What We're Reading
October's Theme:
Dark & Gothic Fantasy
We typically choose two books a month for our monthly book club. In 2026, we selected themes from the TBR survey to align the book choices with member requests. Every quarter, we vote to determine the book choices for the next three months.
In October, we're discussing books in the dark and gothic fantasy subgenres: The Devils by Joe Abercrombie and The Red Winter by Cameron Sullivan. The voting was close, so we also have a bonus pick: The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin
Side Quests
In addition to monthly books, we also have a variety of Side Quest options for those who want to read outside the monthly picks. Each one has a separate "mini book club" meeting. These books are either stand-alone books that are too long for a monthly reading experience, or series that our members want to dive into.
You'll need to create a login to see our active side quests. Each one has a dedicated WhatsApp chat for members to vote on meeting dates and times. Please join the site to access the list of side quests and gain access to the chats.
