Über uns
This is a group for people who like reading books and comics and watching films and TV shows about such exciting topics as:
• science fiction
• fantasy
• leopards
• horror
• George
Every month we will get together in a Central London pub to discuss a wonderful book most probably not about leopards (but one can dream). We will try to select books that aren't too long as we all have other books to read and maybe other fine book clubs to attend.
We also hold monthly meetings for discussing a lesser known or under appreciated film.
Finally, we have a meeting for a comic of the month. So plenty of options to pick from!
We will avoid any books that rely on existing knowledge of other works or are incomplete. For instance, parts of a series will mostly (and sadly) have to be avoided and novel tie-ins to films or TV series are also unlikely as this would require familiarity with the original material.
We don't have a lot of rules, just be nice and respectful to everyone and don't talk over people. Also, please keep your RSVPs up to date. People doing last minute cancellations or no shows can leave us in a poor position with the venue and we wouldn't want to lose it!
Have you heard the Good News about George? We love the George and you should too. Join us! And George.
Finally, being a book club, we are looking for fun discussions so we will try to find novels where there will be a good amount to talk about rather than everyone just oooing and aaahing about how awesome it was.
But yes, read book, chat about book... profit! If it works for the underpants gnomes it works for us yes? Huzzah!
