| When: | Monthly on Friday afternoons 2:30 pm 3rd Friday of each month |
| Venue: | Member's house |
| Cost: | We meet to discuss books we have read. Usually we all read the same book during one month and meet to discuss that book. Now that we seem to have exhausted the sets of books from the library we are each getting our own copies. Often the themes of a book - mostly fiction - take us on a wide range of subjects in our discussions. |
