If you enjoy a good read and like a good chat there are 4 reading groups in the borough where you can do just that. All our book groups are free to join and the library service will provide the books to be discussed.
Members get to choose the books to read and it's a good way of trying new authors and types of book. The children's group also has time for quizzes and games as well.
Why not try one of these groups?
We are hoping to start a reading group at Barking Library.
If you are interested in taking part please contact Stephanie Vernon-Penrose on 020 8724 8724 or email stephanie.vernon-penrose@lbbd.gov.uk.
