Book Club #6
We meet on the 4th Monday of the month at 2 p.m, taking turns meeting at member’s homes. We meet during July and August, but not formally during December, January, and February. The hostess picks that month’s book and provides refreshments. 2 spots open.
Book Club #9
We usually meet on the first Thursday of the month at 6:30 pm. (We are considering changing to an earlier evening start time during the winter months; we will decide that, and set up next year’s reading list and meeting schedule at the next meeting on September 5th)
We determine our reading list together at a meeting in which the members discuss books they they are interested in, and as a group we decide which ones we will read, and who will lead each book discussion. (We will do this next at our Sept 5 meeting)
We alternate meeting at each other’s homes. The host provides light refreshments for the meeting but, to make it easier, the host is not the one responsible for lead the book talk. 5 spots available.
