    “Before I knew about Priya Parker, @Samin articulated practices I knew were working about my long-running book club but had failed to articulate myself. One thing that is missing from this list is “Share the Burden.” When building a community, it helps when everyone feels ownership over something, whether that be bringing a dish, bringing a list of possible books or rotating who hosts.”
