Our History
Women Empowered By Books (WEBB) Book Club began in May 2005 with a group of friends who were exchanging books and ideas while at their favorite beauty salon. We are a diverse group of African-American women who enjoy reading and bonding both spiritually and socially.
Our Mission
Women Empowered By Books (WEBB) Book Club is a book club for women who love to read. First and foremost, WEBB's mission is to spread love, knowledge, devotion, and respect. Our love for literature brings us together in harmony. Through reading, we obtain knowledge which empowers us to strenghten our bond as committed women!
We engage in funderaising activities and will plan social events in an effort to enrich our community. As the spiritually minded members of WEBB, this is our mission statement.
Our Meetings
Our club meets once a month. Each member hosts a discussion meeting. The members participate in a potluck meal. Meetings are held January through November, unless a special event is scheduled. The month of December is dedicated to celebrating the holidays.
Our Membership

Book of the Month (January 2012)
"Love, Honor and Betray" by " Kimberla Lawson Roby"
|
In Roby's eighth update exploring the family of the righteous Reverend Black, life at the Deliverance Outreach ministry of Mitchell, Ill., is relatively calm (except for a sneaky chief financial officer; never trust a CFO named Raven), but the minister's household is suffering. Most notably, his frustrated wife, Charlotte, is furious that he's taken in Curtina, the daughter that came from an affair. Charlotte doesn't believe she can love Curtina the way she loves Matthew, the teenage son the couple share. Roby's rendering of Charlotte rekindling her own affair, with an old now-married flame, and her one-night stand with a secretive man is a hoot, and fans of faith-based series will no doubt relish these sinful shenanigans. But readers will find it hard to empathize with a woman who bears such fiery resentment for a toddler!
