Virtual Book Club (6)

"What makes a good book, and what makes a good movie are totally different things" Quote by Seth Grahame-Smith

Some of the most successful and best loved films of all time have been based on books. Whether they began as novels, nonfiction, or even an unpublished short story, they have found an audience both on the page and on screen. We are asking for members to pick a book that was made into a film. Maybe you could watch the film afterwards to see how they compare. Tell us what you think!

The next meeting is on Monday 30th November at 7pm.

What happens at the book club:

A small group meet on a regular basis, we review a book of your own choice matching the chosen theme. Each person takes it in turn to review their book, good points and bad points, what we enjoyed and writing styles. We then choose the next theme and meeting date. It is a great opportunity to brush up your presentation skills, boost your confidence and network with new or existing contacts.

Options are more limited in terms of acquiring books but just to give you some electronic ideas a go, you could try:
• Kindle Books
• Audio Subscriptions such as Audible
• Free books online from places such as Project Gutenberg - Click here
• Here is a link to a borrowing website linked to Leeds Libraries.

If anyone wants a quick chat about how things will run or any thoughts on the future for the book club feel free to get in touch with President Melanie Jordan via LinkedIn.

Zoom link details will be received with your booking confirmation. We ask for you to choose a book in this theme and inform the office with your choice, via your booking.
