Book Group 1 is for people who want to foster their curiosity. It’s a group for those who enjoy discovering and discussing books with other readers.

The group is member-led. Each member has the opportunity to select a book for discussion. Individuals introduce their choice and after a short summary of the book and its author(s), group members exchange and share their views. A ‘cuppa’ gently brings our discussion to a close.

Our members' book selections for session 2025/26 include:

• James by Percival Everett
• Orbital by Samantha Harvey
• Our Souls at Night by Kent Haruf
• The Bridges of Madison County by Robert James Waller
• Passing by Nella Larsen
• The Road by Cormac McCarthy
• Yellowface by R F Kuang
• The Summer Book by Tove Jansson

The group is a way to meet other book lovers, read some great books, gain new perspectives and have some memorable conversations.
