Charming Chatty Chicks Book Club

We, as a group, meet every third wednesday of the month (except July, August and December). We are a diverse group of women who all share a great love of books. Our meetings are always full of intense discussions, great laughter and tasty wine. We like to exchange small gifts at our November and June meetings because we all like presents. Every member gets to chose at least one book a year and we share the responsibility for the summer pick.
