Book Group 2
Leader | Eve |
Meeting pattern | 2nd Thursday of the month at 10.00am |
Venue | Various |
Book Group 2 met on Zoom with Mike Lee’s guidance through lockdown and would now have the confidence to resort to it again if necessary, but we have proved adaptable, trying coffee shops and other public venues, or the generosity of our members. We meet at 10.00 am on the second Thursday of the month. We draw up our programme for the year by asking each member to volunteer a title to provide a new read each month. This can be fiction or non-fiction, classical, modern or familiar, or a first novel by a new author – we are an eclectic circle! The book we have been reading that month is then introduced by the person who chose it, with perhaps a brief synopsis, or something about the author. The members then add their opinions, which usually leads to a lively discussion to which we bring our different experiences, attitudes and approaches to reading – always a well spent morning. We have no spaces at present.
