The Book Club

Welcome to our book club!

We are currently running this club as online only, and you can check this web page for our current book.

You can also join our Goodreads group , simply click on the icon below, and don't forget to follow us or add us as a friend to receive updates. There you can join in on our discussions, let us know what you are reading or maybe recommend some books to be featured here on our web page!

Don't feel like you have to join in with our selected book each time, but if you'd like to join in on our discussions, we'd love to hear from you. All are welcome!

We have relaunched the Book Club as of July to coincide with Health Information Week (5th July) and we have changed the way we run the book club, selecting one book every 8 weeks. We also hope discuss the books via MS Teams with details of these meetings posted on our Goodreads page.

Our second book will be "The Tattoist of Auschwitz" from the selection of books we have received for Health Information Week. This book was selected by one of our Library Staff members, Lisa.

Coming soon, is "Erebus: The Story of a Ship" selected by Jo, a Library Assistant.

You can click on the book images above, to find out more about our selected books. Please remember you are free to dip in and out of the club and there is no expectation for you to read all of the books we select, just the ones you want to read!

If you'd like to recommend a book to feature in our "Other Recommended Reads" section, please add it to our General Discussion thread in Goodreads.

October is Black History Month and we have a number of titles coming soon to celebrate this event and the work of several black authors. To see the list and view other planned events click here.
