What we’re about
A good book group provides some essential ingredients for good living. Please join us if you are interested in enjoying good people, good books, stimulating conversation, and an all-around good time!
We read fiction and nonfiction from different cultures and genres—beloved classics as well as recently published works. Many members tell us this is one of the reasons they love the group: it introduces them to books, authors, and genres they would otherwise never have read. Members are encouraged to share their book recommendations.
Our group reads two books each month. Discussions on the first Tuesday of the month are held in person, while we convene for online conversations on the third Thursday. New participants are always welcome!

See all- EDUCATED, by Tara WestoverLink visible for attendees
Join us for an online conversation about Educated, Tara Westover's memoir detailing her incredible journey out of the controlled, isolated world of her survivalist family through the power of education.
Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if she’d traveled too far, if there was still a way home.
