The TMA Book Club is a student community dedicated to fostering a love of reading outside the academic setting. Each month, members vote on a book that is accessible to everyone through social media or group chat. The club hosts weekly or biweekly meetups on campus, providing a relaxed and enjoyable space to discuss the book, share insights, and engage in thoughtful conversation.

At the end of each book, a final meeting allows members to give personal reviews and decide together what to read next. Our goal is to finish one book per month, exploring novels, fiction, and classical literature—offering a refreshing break from medical texts.

The TMA Book Club encourages creativity, dialogue, and community, bringing together students who share a passion for reading or who wish to discover literature beyond the curriculum.
