Thursday Afternoon Readers' Group at Hale Library
A friendly and relaxed readers' group where book lovers can discover new authors, share their views and enjoy great conversations over great books.
Whether you're a lifelong book lover or simply looking to read something different, this friendly readers’ group is a wonderful way to share thoughts, exchange recommendations and explore a wide variety of books.
From contemporary fiction and historical novels to thought-provoking classics and bestselling favourites, each month brings a new title and an opportunity to enjoy lively discussion in a relaxed and informal setting.
Readers' groups offer more than just a chance to talk about books. They provide an opportunity to meet new people, broaden your reading horizons and gain fresh perspectives from fellow readers. You may even discover a genre, author or story you would never have picked up on your own.
Looking for your next great read and some friendly conversation? Pull up a chair, grab a cuppa and join Hale Library's Afternoon Readers' Group - on the second Thursday of the month.
