What: We are a group of avid readers and have enjoyed some and ploughed through other less well received novels. Our best read was The Woman in the White Kimono by Ana Johns. Our runner-up was the the Dead Line by Holly Watt, a close run read with All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. Poorest read, was The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco. Most quirky was A Man called Ove by Frederick Backman. We seem to have chosen novels based in far-flung lands including India, Korea and Japan.

We also read non-fiction. As always, Teresa, the Bearsted Library librarian, is a valuable resource. We give her a list of 12 - 14 titles and read them in the order they are received from County. So far we have been very fortunate in having the majority of our requests available.

We take it in turns to host and provide refreshments.

All of our book groups are currently full. Please join our waiting list and we will notify you as soon as space becomes available. If there is sufficient demand, we will look to start another group.
