Update 1/7: AND WE HAVE A NAME.
I've decided to go with 'Our Shared Shelf'. @emilyfabb - I absolutely loved this. Thank you, thank you xJanuary 7, 2016
Not the Harry Potter pun we all wanted, but there it is.
Original 1/7: Hermione Granger—or as she's known to muggles, Emma Watson—is starting the feminist book club you never knew you needed.
The UN ambassador and "wingardium leviosa" expert spent 2015 becoming a voice of contemporary feminism, but she can't handle the responsibility of a world-wide book club on her lonesome, which is why she wants your help picking a name.
Hi Team, ❤️ I want to start a feminist book club but so far have only brainstormed 'Feminist Book Club' and 'Emma Watson Book Club'.January 6, 2016
I am almost certain there is a more inspiring name out there.... Does anyone have any thoughts ?! #Emma'sBookClubJanuary 6, 2016
Obviously, the suggestion "Feminist Book Club" probably misses the mark, so here are some alternatives:
Emma Watson's Every Flavor Beans n' Books Club (Get it? Harry Potter humor.)
Feminist Fascicle Fanatics
