• Non-Fiction Reading Group

    Book group with a difference, for those interested in non fiction.
    Unlike other groups we don't all read the same book. Instead, we meet once a month to talk about any non fiction books we've read.
    These can range from geology to economics, biography to nature walking, Stephen Hawkins (Brief History Of Time) to Adam Kay (This Is Going To Hurt).
    Free event, new members welcome. Ask in library for details
