This is a book group with a twist. We all read the book and then get together to watch the movie. Then we discuss the book and the movie; its similarities and its differences.

We will meet at my location in Rogers Park midway between the Morse and Loyola red line stops. There is also street parking available. You are welcome to bring any type of refreshments if you like.

Everyone who likes to read and watch movies should join.

You can contact me at susan@susan-skinner.com or www.susan-skinner.com
