Book Group at South Library - every 2nd Monday of the month
Kia ora neighbours!
I am a librarian at Christchurch City Libraries, and the convener of a book group, part of the Book Discussion Scheme, at South Library in Beckenham.
Meeting time: 2nd Monday of the month, 6pm-7pm
We are looking for new members, as a couple of our lovely members have had to leave due to other commitments. We are a friendly bunch of ladies, with lively conversation and a great mix of opinions, thoughts and experiences.
Anyone is welcome - a love of reading would be great, but we also welcome anyone who would like to try something new :)
A charge does apply for membership - this is paid yearly, so depending on when you join this varies. 1 full year is $60 and you will be provided with 10 books through this time.
Please feel free to contact me - any questions are warmly welcomed.
