First timer ticket for "oscar's bookclub"
£7.00
"with freedom, books, flowers & the moon, who couldn't be happy?" - Oscar Wilde
We meet on the full moon; we discuss the book we've just read; we drink wine & we howl at the moon; all from within a flower shop...who couldn't be happy?
As a first-timer your ticket includes your first glass of wine or alternative, and tells the team at Stems & Vines know to expect you for our next meet-up.
This is a very relaxed bookclub; mingling & catching up and getting to know any newbies will be how we begin; then some question-led discussions about the book we've just read, before reading the first chapter, or few pages of the next book.
We will pull in some talk of the moon, the energy shifts throughout the month, or any significant lunar occasions upcoming or just passed.
We are currently reading:
"Candide" by Voltaire
Penguin Classics Edition ISBN: 978-0140455106
The next meeting is:
Friday 28th August, 7pm at Stems & Vines, 151 Askew Road W12 9AU
We are yet to decide the NEXT book... but feel free to make some suggestions when you buy your ticket!
We also have a Whatsapp Group - so after attending your first bookclub, you can decide if you would like to keep coming, and be added to the group to be involved with the discussion & polls on the upcoming books.
