Join with other book lovers to talk about books.
The Wednesday Book Group is changing the format of our meetings.
We will have a single meeting each month, meeting on the fourth Wednesday of the month at the Three Craws, Crow Road, at 11.30am, to discuss a designated book, and also share book recommendations and swap books, over coffee.
(Click on the link to send a message to the group co-ordinator)
Please find below the books and dates on which we shall discuss them at the Coffee and Chat Meetings at the Three Craws at 11:30.
Happy reading!
