Drinks, Nibbles, and Noshes

The food or desserts you choose to serve at your book club party depends on how much you want to spend and prepare, and whether there's a dominant theme in the book.You can plan your nibbles around the setting and meals in the book.

For example, Jeffrey Eugenides' main character in his book Middlesex is Greek. Serve up some Greek salad, sweet baklava and ouzo.

If reading Anchee Min's book Becoming Madame Mao dish Chinese nibbles like egg roll, General Tso's Chicken and fresh lychees. (This is great for no-fuss take-out)!
