At each meeting we have an informal discussion about the latest book (they becomes much more informal as the evening progresses – due to the consumption of wine and nibbles!). These discussions are lively and thought-provoking.  Books are provided via Crosby Library's reading group list.

We are next meeting on Tuesday 3rd December when we will be having our Christmas Party
next book will be available in the New Year (2025)
