English Book Club

Small-Group Online Discussion for Adults

Have you ever wanted to read a full book in English and discuss it with others?

This small-group book club offers a relaxed but thoughtful environment where participants read English novels and explore ideas through guided discussion.

Participants read assigned chapters before each meeting.
