Hi, I moved to Redbourn last year and looking to join or start a book club. Could you please let me know of a local one or if anyone is interested in starting one?

Our next meeting will be on Weds 18th March, usual venue and time.

The book this month is 'The Miniaturist' by Jessie Burton.

All welcome! Just read the book and come along.

We had a very lively discussion about 'The Miniaturist' last night, a book which everyone enjoyed very much.

Our next book is 'This Boy' by Alan Johnson and the meeting will be on Weds 22nd April at 8pm, usual place.

Happy reading everyone!

Many thanks.

Hi, is your book club full as I would like to join if you have space? Many thanks.

Dragontrainer2 · 02/06/2015 13:24

Sorry, this is probably a bit late unless you are a speed reader with time on your hands, but, the next book group meeting is tomorrow evening at 8 pm in the Cock Inn. The book is The Hungry Tide by Amitav Ghosh.

Florrie You're more than welcome to come and join us- we're usually identifiable as the group of ladies with Kindles and books on the table! If it is too short notice to come along tomorrow night, someone will post details on here for the following session!

Hi All,
I am sorry I haven't been to any of the book clubs recently I have been away or working when the meetings are happening. I was wondering what the next date of book club is and what are we reading. Hope you are all well. xxx

Hi Kate,

We're reading 'The Shoemaker's Wife' by Adriana Trigiani and meeting on Weds 11th Nov. Hope to see you then!

Hi Ladies,

I have just moved to Harpenden and I would love to join this book club. Are you still meeting?

Thanks!

Just realised I hadn't posted on this thread in ages. Yes, we are still meeting and if anyone is interested in coming along, please do!

We meet monthly (or thereabouts), in The Old Cock Inn, Harpenden.

Our May book is 'The Yacoubian Building' by Alaa al Aswany and we'll be meeting on 25th May at 8pm. PM me if you want to introduce yourself or know anything else.

Hello...not sure if anyone is actually going to see this.
I am just wondering if you ladies still meet up as I am looking for a book club in Harpenden?

Thank you

juneau2 · 15/09/2016 16:39

Yes, Mollie, we do! Actually I'd just come on here to post the next meeting so please do read the book and come along if you'd like to. We're a friendly group and always open to new members and we always meet in Harpenden, which should be convenient for you (although not all our members live there).

Our next meeting will be on Weds 5th Oct at the Old Cock Inn, Harpenden at 8pm. This month's book is 'The Palace of Illusions' by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni.

juneau2 · 07/10/2016 13:02

Our next meeting is on Weds 9th Nov at 8.30pm at the Old Cock Inn, Harpenden. The book is 'Olive Kitteridge' by Elizabeth Strout.
