Book Club
The Book Club meets each month, virtually or in a Member’s home, to discuss agreed-upon books. It is a lively group of avid readers who enjoy reading literary treasures and exchanging opinions on the various topics that arise from the texts. The chosen novels are often selected from among the nominations for literature awards such as the Nobel, Pulitzer, or Booker Prizes, but this is by no means exclusive, as bestsellers also find their way not infrequently into the repertoire.
Typical timing:
Monthly meeting on the Second Tuesday at 3:00pm
