Piddington Book Group
Piddington Book Group was launched at the beginning of 2024 with the idea of getting together to talk about a book suggested by a member of the group.
Any genre or type of book may be put forward for discussion, but the meetings work best if you’ve read the book before suggesting it, so that you can say why you chose it as a good – or at least an interesting – read.
We meet roughly every six weeks on Monday evening at 7.30pm. Meetings are usually hosted by the person choosing the book, so if you haven't been to a meeting before, please email Piddington Book Group to check the venue.
We welcome new members, and look forward to some sociable book chat over the next few months.
