Reading is for the mind what exercise is for the body!
Reader Groups are free to join for all adult (over 16) members of the library, and you can attend whichever meeting is convenient for you. We provide limited copies of each title on the reading list, but you are welcome to purchase your own. The tone is friendly, informal and non-academic.

To join a group, ask at your local library for a Reader Group membership form. We only require basic contact details and you will be added to our mailing list and sent a schedule of meetings together with our current book list. You can check out what titles we're reading this year by viewing the document below.
