When we read, we get to walk around in someone else’s shoes. When we read, we expand our perspective and grow in compassion. When we read, we travel to places and times we will never get to visit. When we read with others, we are motivated and challenged in ways we might not be otherwise, plus we might make a friend or two.
Anyone of any age is welcome to come discuss the book of the month. You don’t even need to have read the book! The conversation is always stimulating and we welcome your contributions.
