Reading Groups
What is a Reading Group?
- Reading groups provide a forum for those wanting to combine their love of books with the opportunity to meet other readers.
- Members of the group select books to read, using various criteria, then meet regularly to discuss them. As a member of a reading group you can understand, appreciate and talk about the books you read plus discover new titles and writers.
