December’s Reading Group meeting has moved to Wednesday the 6th of December, at 7pm, with Megan Richardson gracefully hosting at her home close to the Merode metro stop. 

We often share a meal together while sharing views on the book-of-the-month.

And secondarily, good reads we have enjoyed.  All contributions to the conversation are welcome!
