Bradley Stoke Reading Group
Bradley Stoke Library, Fiddlers Wood Lane, Bradley Stoke, Bristol BS32 9BS (map)
Reading groups are not about deep literary discussions and not about right or wrong interpretations of a book. They are actually great fun. They are a great way for people who enjoy reading to get together and relax whilst sharing thoughts and feelings about books. They can also lead them to discover new authors or types of fiction (or even non-fiction) that they may not have tried before. More info: Ask at the library or just turn up to a meeting.
