Our Reading Group

We are a group of friends who love to read. We get together about once a month to talk about a book that we've all been reading. Sometimes we agree, sometimes we disagree, but we usually have a good chat, whether it's about the book or just a gossip!

Last month's book

Last month we read Death Comes to Pemberley by P D James. We found this a little repetitive although a very easy read.

This month's book

This month we're reading the controversial Fifty Shades of Grey by E L James. The next meeting is at 8pm on Tuesday, 29th May 2012 at Lucy's house.

But Grey is tormented by inner demons, and consumed by the need to control. As they embark on a passionate love affair, Ana discovers more about her own desires, as well as the dark secrets Grey keeps hidden away from public view …
