If you enjoy talking about books over a quiet drink, then please join us — new members are very welcome. We normally meet at the Fletcher Moss on William Street in Didsbury around 8 pm but whilst the contagion lasts and we REMAIN INDOORS we'll become a virtual bookgroup and meet online.
Please use the Contact Us form [on the web version of the site] to be added to our mailing list and receive the online meeting invitations.
There's a meeting every fortnight, but you don't have to come to them all. It's dead simple; choose a book you like the sound of, read it (or even part of it) beforehand and turn up* with a few ideas and money for beer / wine / flirtinis. It's all very informal, and we're quite a friendly bunch. We can usually be found on the table with the books and flirtinis.
Our reading list, past, present, and future, appears here and there's a shorter version of upcoming books here.
* Do not turn up — REMAIN INDOORS !

South of the Border, West of the Sun - Haruki Murakami

Can't make it today, I'm afraid - late meeting at work.
Really enjoyed the book - beautifully written - except that the narrator is clearly an utter git, which made it hard to have much sympathy for him.
I liked the way it all became a bit dreamlike and mysterious at the end.
