The monthly book club at Ukazoo's Towson store generally reads fiction, alternating between modern works and classics. "It's not intensely scholarly, but not without structure," says moderator and assistant manager Ian Davis, noting that some people attend even though they haven't read the book. (Sound familiar, book clubbers?)

Liked a lot: Turn of the Screw, by Henry James, The Trial, by Franz Kafka

Reading now: The Thirteenth Tale, by Diane Setterfield

The club is open to the public and members get a 30 percent discount -- plus free coffee and tea. The next meeting is June 26. Info: call 410.832.2665 or e-mail  ukazoobookclub@gmail.com.
