Literature/Film Studies | Registration opens 8/5/25 9:00 AM EDT

Nonfiction ranges widely:  politics to biography, history to natural science, adventure to psychology, sociology to business – we read them all.  Here’s an opportunity to discover the ever-changing and evolving facts and opinions expressed by the “experts” in subjects of personal or general interest.  Members recommend books they have read with final selections made by majority vote.  Attendees may be surprised to read titles they might never have considered – PLUS enjoy lively discussions that often stimulate additional thoughts on these subjects from a plethora of members’ experiences and viewpoints.
