Description
UWE Bristol Libraries are excited to be hosting a brand-new Book Club, where our lovely librarians will be hosting informal chats and a coffee over a book we have read. These sessions are welcome to any UWE students with a passion for books who would like to spend their lunchtime diving into a discussion about the title we've picked out.
For our very first session, we will be chatting about My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite, which is available for all to access in e-book format through our Library search. If you would like to come along, you can read the book beforehand so you can contribute to discussion.
If you don't finish it, don't worry! You're still welcome to come along for a chat.
We are meeting on Thursday 24 November at 13:00 in room 4D30 in Frenchay Library. Feel free to bring a (lidded!) hot drink and cold snacks.
