Book Group 4 has been meeting weekly usually in the Cherry Tree pub in Southgate. As well as taking turns at recommending and then leading the discussion on a book our members recommend and lend books to each other.
As a result we have tried a wide range of books in terms of geography and genre from Parisian adventure (Paris Echo by Sebastian Faulks) to Irish fantasy (Himself by Jess Kidd) to Japanese murder mystery (The Honjin Murders by Seishi Yakonizo) and many, many more. We are currently reading Stanley & Elsie by Nicola Upson for our meeting on 9 February. We read one book a month for discussion even though we meet weekly.
Our discussions start with and usually return to books .... but with substantial digressions in between. We have grown into a support group and help each other in many ways.
