About the Group

This year with social distancing due to Coronavirus we are meeting on Zoom.  Normally the book group meets the third Wednesday and the fourth Tuesday of each month from 2:00 to 4:00 pm at the homes of members for dessert and coffee and a discussion of the selected book. Both groups read the same title. In December we have a joint holiday luncheon meeting. But while we are meeting on Zoom we will only be having one meeting per month and that will be at 2 pm on the fourth Tuesday.  Please mark your calendars and be alert for an invitation from Terry Bratt shortly before the meeting.

Our July meeting is also a joint session of both groups where we select titles for the coming year. Each member can lobby for books that they would like to have on the list. This usually gives us a good mix of fiction, non-fiction, current and classics.

We try to be sure that the titles are available at the library or in paperback. We do not meet in August. There is no set format for the meetings, e.g., published study questions, but if a member has found something they think will be helpful, they present it to the group. We never seem to lack for discussion.

Check the membership directory for addresses.  Be sure to let the hostess know if you will be attending the session at her home. Read the books and come join the fun!
