How to handle when one person changes the dynamic of your group activity

Our neighborhood book club started as a casual thing but one member has turned it into this intense political discussion every month and half the group loves it and half the group just wanted to talk about books. We're all trying to be polite but people are starting to skip meetings and I think the whole thing might fall apart.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Someone's passion is overwhelming the original purpose you all shared, and politeness is preventing the honest conversation you need.
