Virtual Book Club (7)

Online
Monday, 11 January 2021
7:00 pm (UK time)

Theme: Sci-Fi!

Our next theme is Science fiction. This is a genre of speculative fiction that typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as advanced science and technology, space exploration, time travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life. Sounds like a great way to escape at the moment!

Don’t be put off thinking that Sci-Fi isn’t for you, there are so many different types of books that fit in this category and we’d love to see you all for a book related chat in January.

The next meeting is on Monday 11th January 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.
