This 4th Book Reading Group meets at members' homes. We choose one book to read each month, from a broad range of fiction/non-fiction/contemporary/historical literature, then we all read the same book and discuss it together.
It is interesting to hear each other’s reactions to the same story, and we also look at some of reviews available on line, as well as information about the author.
New members are welcome. For more information contact Eileen by phone or email using the link on the top right.
