Group Leader : Marilyn Jones

We meet on the third Monday in the month, 10 am to midday in the Hameldon Room, at the Unitarian Church, Padiham. We are a small, friendly group, usually around ten in number.

The books we read are suggested by members of the group. A member will introduce the book and we will then discuss it and share our views. We also enjoy hearing about other books members have read during the month and would recommend. For 2026 we will be looking at debut novels.

Books for reading and discussion in the coming months are :

• 17th August : Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
• 21st September : The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
• 19th October : A Study in Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
• 16th November : Guilty by Definition by Susie Dent
• 21st December : One Christmas Morning by Rachel Greenlaw
• 18th January : Holy Island by L.J. Ross
