Book clubs in Loughton

Booked Up!

We read from Time Magazine's All-Time 100 Novels so that we always have interesting book to read and discuss, it’s a mix of genres so something for everyone (at some point). If you don’t want to read the book of the month I suggest reading something else by the same author or picking something of the same genre by a different author so you can add another viewpoint into the discussion. The point of the group isn’t just to read things you wouldn’t usually – it’s also to have interesting discussions when we get together. We meet on the fourth Wednesday evening of each month at The Standard, 126 High Road, Loughton. There is parking to the side and behind the pub, we arrive at 7pm and start book talk at 7:15pm. If you are interested in coming along message bookedupreadinggroup@outlook.com The group is a mix of people so you won’t always see the same people every month – which adds to the flavour of our discussions.
