Book Clubs

Central

Books for Dudes Book Club is for guys of all ages and meets on the 2nd Wednesday of every month at noon in Central Library in Room 120. We talk about whatever we happen to be reading at the time. Fiction or nonfiction, new or old, popular or obscure, manly enough to put hair on your chest or tear-inducing "chick lit" -- we’ll talk about it. We just want to have a laid-back chat about what you like to read and what you like about it. Come prepared to talk about your favorite author or a book you’ve enjoyed recently. Or if you prefer, come and just listen. We are avid readers who love to talk books, movies, sports, or whatever is going on in the world. Please join us this month! And call 703-3050 for more information.

4th Thursday Book Club is for everyone who loves to read and talk about books. We are a lively group from all ages and experiences who read fiction, history, biography, memoir, art —- we love to read all kinds of books. We also love author visits, which occur often, and food, so we occasionally meet at local eateries. We meet on the 4th Thursday of each month at 12:30 pm. You are cordially welcome! Please call 703-3022 for more information.

The members select the books anywhere from six months to a year in advance. The club reads a variety of titles, including the occasional nonfiction title. Once or twice a year the club meets at a local restaurant to enjoy dinner together while discussing that month’s title. The club currently has around 25 members and always welcomes new ones!
