Hopeful Book Club
Details
Our first book club session! We'll be discussing Orbital by Samantha Harvey. New readers are very welcome!
The Hopeful Book Club is a welcoming social group where we discuss books that give you hope, but that don’t necessarily shy away from the difficult things. This won't be about reading books that ignore
everything we worry about, or give us only a rose-tinted view, but about
reading those works which show us some light in the dark, that highlight a
sense of awe and wonder at our world and the human beings in it. And most
importantly, they’ll be great literature!
We’ll recommend a monthly read, and then we’ll get together on the last
Sunday of the month, 5-6pm, just as the ‘dark teatime of the soul’ sets in.
Bring a cuppa, share your feelings on the book and maybe recommendations
for other ways to stay hopeful and positive. Occasionally we’ll invite guest
speakers and writers, and most of all, we’ll build a community of hope.
