The only book club platform built for hosts who take their craft seriously — real ways to earn from the community you build, with smart prep tools quietly handling the busywork.
You spend hours choosing the right book, crafting discussion questions, keeping the conversation alive. Your members show up because of you. But every other platform treats you like an unpaid moderator.
Fable makes money from your audience. Goodreads ignores you entirely. Facebook Groups gives you nothing but headaches.
Books And Friends is built differently. We give you the tools to run an exceptional club — and the ability to earn from the community you've built.
Create your club — Name your club, pick your vibe, and invite members with a single link. Your club, your rules.
Prep in minutes, not hours — Search any book and get an editable starting-point guide — talking points, themes, character notes, and a reading schedule. Shape it, make it yours, and you're ready to host.
Run your session, earn your keep — Host a great discussion. Members tip you directly. Every book purchase through your club earns you affiliate credit. Your effort, your income.
No brand deals. No chasing sponsors. Just your community supporting the work you already do.
Tip jar — After a great session, members can tip you directly in the app. You keep 90%. No awkward asks — it's built right into the experience.
Affiliate earnings — Every book you select for your club comes with your personal Amazon affiliate link. When members buy, you earn. Automatically.
Paid access — Gate your club behind a monthly membership fee or charge per book. Stripe handles checkout, we keep 10%, and the rest pays out straight to your account.
Optional automations turn any book into an editable starting point — so you can skip the busywork and get to the conversation faster. You stay in control: edit it, rewrite it, or ignore it entirely. The club is always yours.
Every new host gets a 7-day trial of everything. No credit card required.
Start free today. No credit card. No catch. Just better book clubs.
