Reading For Pleasure Group 3
We have now had two meetings at Dorchester Library, our new venue. It was so good to be able to see everyone in person and catch up. There ia a beverage machine but we have decided to bring our own choice of drink.
We currently meet in a large room where it is easily to socially distance so, at the moment, attendance numbers are not a problem. However in January we will be allocated a smaller space and, depending on guidance from the Government, spaces may be limited. Members are asked to continue to let Elizabeth, Group Leader, of their wish to attend the meeting.
In the early part of the year we sent a book selection to the Library but unfortunately the majority of those we had chosen had already been allocated. We understand that the new book list will be available in June 2022 so plan to look again at the titles available. We have recently been reading the most popular books from our members' library selection and still have a couple to go before deciding on titles to take us up to June.
Titles read since the beginning of this year are as follows:
The Family Upstairs Lisa Jewell
The Dutch House Ann Patchett
The Only Woman in the Room Marie Benedict
The Thread Victoria Hislop
Boy Swallows Universe Trent Dalton
A Single Thread Tracy Chevalier
Noah's Compass Anne Tyler
Titles still to be read and discussed:
Inheritance Jenny Éclair
Hamnett Maggie o'Farrell
My Name is Why Lemn Sisay
Lady in Waiting Anne Glenconner
I hope this fulfills the requirements needed to satisfy the enquiring minds that trawl the internet!
