Book Groups

Isn’t it fun to talk about a book you just read with others? The Nevins Library hosts several different Book Groups to do just that. We have groups for children, teens, and several different themed groups for adults. It’s a great way to get together with friends to talk about books and current topics.

Whether you’ve participated in our Book Groups before, or not, there is always room for new members. Come to a meeting and see if you like it

We’ll read across all topics within non-fiction (e.g. Biographies, True Crime, Travelogues, etc.) except for the troublesome two—religion and politics. After all, we want to start a discussion, not a fight! The group meets on the 2nd Monday of each month at 7pm (barring holidays).

The next meeting will be September 9th at 7pm. The theme is a Reader’s Roundup. Come with a list of some of the books you’ve read/liked over the summer to share with everyone.

Selected books are available at the Main Desk for each month leading to the meeting. New Members are always welcome!
