Hi everyone,

Great to see all those who made it last week (especially newcomers!) - not sure how much we spoke about the book but we had a nice time nonetheless!

This month's book is the last one that we have selected, so please remember to bring a couple of suggestions along with you - you don't even need to own or have read the book yourself, perhaps it's just something interesting that you've heard of.

And we were also thinking we'd try slip in a couple of classics this year - so perhaps you could dig up one of your old highschool favourites!

Have a wonderful Christmas everyone and look forward to seeing you in the new year.
