The Book Group
​These book worms meet on the third Friday morning of each month and meetings begin with coffee and biscuits.  There are no "set books" for members to prepare but meetings are well structured and purposeful.  Themes range from 'My Favourite Book' to 'The Book I Most Dislike' and seasonal themes often include members contributing readings from texts new and old.
 
Book swaps are always fun and individuals' choice of favourite authors can lead to friendly disputes but this often stimulates members to try again with writers they gave up on years ago!  Our more serious sessions have considered historical writing, humour, the classics, travel books, current writing; indeed anything of shared interest. 
 
What are you reading at the moment?  Why not come and share it with us: we are always pleased to have new ideas and approaches thrown into the mix!
