Beverly Drive Book Club

This morning I was stopped by a baffled Overheardian in need of details. While looking at a home she was considering buying on Beverly she was informed by the realtor that if she bought the house there was a possibility she could become a member of the Beverly Drive Book Club. She thought he was kidding and chuckled. But he wasn’t. He went on to explain the exclusive nature of the group, by invitation only for Beverly Drive homeowners.

So, what if a big reader moves into a bajillion dollar house on St. Johns and is willing to commute to the meetings, would they really be denied membership? Or what if a new Beverly rez wants to join but isn’t invited, can they just crash the party? Here’s the super big question: what if someone rents on Beverly, can they read books with the others?

    I think I’d rather be in the Beverly Drive Investment Club - surely they have one.

    What if you live on West HP Beverly? And surely they will accept Lakesiders, right?

  • bluebird

    You’re in ONLY if invited. No crashers allowed.

    SOunds like bluebird is in the know . . . are you in the BDBC?

    People! Get your story straight!

    The Beverly Drive Book Club has been around for over 50 years!

    Plain and simple. It was started by a group of women that lived on Beverly Drive that wanted to get to know their neighbors and wanted to add a little education to it… like a book club!

    This is the longest standing book club that I have ever heard of and is cool… in my opinion.

    Who can attend? Anyone that lives on Beverly Drive or anyone that HAS since the book club began. Even if you eventually moved to Lakewood or St. Johns, etc.

    Give me a break for making nasty comments about everything that exists in the world! Who are you to judge as simple thing like a book club?

    P.S. I do not and have never lived on Beverly Drive or the Park Cities!

    Um, Kate. Why the hostility? What “nasty comments?” Which of the above statements would you deem judgmental?

  • BFF

    Book club envy…

    Kate. You must be new to the blog world. You forget that a thick skin is the required dress code. Accessorized with plenty of snarkiness.
