Book Club

St Chad has a thriving book club comprising around 12 members and partners.  Every six weeks or so we select a book, read it and meet up to critique the book, resulting in some very interesting and thought-provoking discussions.  Where there is an accompanying film of the book there is also the opportunity to either see it at the cinema as a group or view on DVD as appropriate and later compare and contrast the two.  The group leader keeps a record of our scoring of each book based on plot, characters, style and overall enjoyment and there are always surprising results!

It is interesting that a "classic" has topped the "chart"  for quite some time now: The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck!
