Kelly (Halesowen)

I love reading, but since having a baby I haven't had as much time to read as I would like, especially after returning to work. I like most genres, but currently I'm leaning more towards more non-fiction books. I'd love to find a local group that meets on an evening (all the ones I can find meet while I am at work), to be able to meet likeminded individuals and have the motivation to read a variety of different books.
