Thoughtful, warm, welcoming
This is such a thoughtfully led book club. I joined the Halifax club and am blown away at how friendly it is, how welcoming the host it and how thoughtful all the content and discussion points are. The books are varied and it's making me read a better variety of genres, even if I don't always love everything - it doesn't matter and it's good to discuss why!

This is a very friendly, welcoming book club which has created a real little community around it. The books are an interesting variety and lead to plenty of stimulating discussions. The group organiser is lovely and very efficient, and the members are great. It's also a good way to meet people. Recommended!
