My main motivation is the social aspect, I LOVE talking about books, art, film etc. so I'd like to join a book club to meet new people and to have a bloody good chat about what we've read over a glass of wine. For escapism, I like the kind of stuff they talk about on Sara Cox's Between The Covers. For mind-expansion, I also like non-fiction books on pre-history, history, science, women's health, feminism, psychology, art history & poetry. I'm open to having a go at starting a book club with others too. Penryn is ideal, could do Falmouth.

Circe

by Madeline Miller | Buy this book

Feminist retelling of the mythical character Circe, usually portrayed as a terrifying witch but cleverly and enjoyably re-written by Miller to be an exiled woman finding the strength to face the challenges of her life and world.

Love reading and getting lost within the story. Will read nearly everything! Would like to meet up over a adult grape juice, away from the daily chores and discuss the next best read.

3rd Monday

Gatherings are hosted by Henry Purbrick, a representative of Cornwall County Council - Libraries, who sets up meetings on the 3rd Monday of the month at the Penryn Library. All are welcome to come, enjoy tea and biscuits, and discuss the book of the month that was chosen from the local library selection, covering a variety of interesting topics. It's a great way to experience different works and thoughts that you may have otherwise overlooked. From time to time, the group will attend other literary activities, and twice a year, a social gathering. New members are more than welcome to join in the fun. Meetings are located at St Thomas' Street, Penryn, Cornwall.
