We have TWO BOOK CLUBS.
One group meets the FIRST MONDAY* of each month and the second group meets the
LAST WEDNESDAY* of each month - different people, same format. We take it in turns to choose a book for the group to read which means there is a huge range of genre to enjoy.
The first part of the meeting (around an hour) we discuss the storyline, the charachters, the themes and topics within the narrative. Different readers identify diffrent elements in the same book. We frequently agree that the books are more enjoyable after our discussions as so much more comes to light.
Would you like to come to a meeting? Come on your own or come with a friend. (You can call ahead and meet-up with a member before joining the group. Tel 01252 843190
This event is free - no membership or subscription fees.
* Bank Holiday and Public Holidays may change the date.
