What a book! Possibly my favourite ever. A book about boredom and tedium which doesn't sound exciting but it really does deliver. Famous for a reason.

Ahamed

Seeking a book club

I am seriously interested in fantasy, adventure, books about life, emotional books, and series fit for young adults are the kind of books I am interested in. And, I am actually looking forward to making some life-long friends through the subject I am interested in and am hoping to find people to talk and interact with. I am actually a pretty fun person and would love to spend some time out of the house. I am pretty much free and can meet up whenever possible if it is only once a day!!! That’s sarcasm BTW! So very looking forward to meeting some new faces and building long lasting bonds!!!

The plot of this book is amazing and the twists in the storyline would make you gasp audibly. To be honest, not many authors have that skill but this one do. I love the book for the amazing characters it introduced into my life which I couldn’t forget even if I wanted to!

The Midwives

Book club

Meets at woolton Run by jean mcevoy Library service We are a group of midwives in Liverpool, and we get together to discuss our chosen book about once a month. We get our books from Woolton Library which is part of Liverpool city council Library services. We have an eclectic taste and read anything form Dickens to Joanna Trollope. We are an opinionated lot which sometimes provokes heated debate. At the moment we are reading Master Georgie by Beryl Banebridge and we are due to meet very soon. We have a democratic way of choosing the books, we each propose a book and say why we would like to read it and then we vote, and this seems to work quite well. We meet at: woolton, Liverpool, Merseyside, L25 8ST Tags women only

Get in touch via the Oomoo cafe on Smithdown Road or via group contact details, but please let us know if you\'re coming along! Accessibility: good access but not perfect for wheelchairs - there is a small step up to the bathroom that can be managed with help (help always on hand), next to bus stop, low background noise levels, bring any small children along and get in touch with any requirements and we\'ll do our best to help.
