Ottawa Bookworms

Ottawa Bookworms is looking for members! This group is for individuals who share a passion of reading and would like a casual friendly discussion on books and socialize. We meet at a coffee shop downtown every third Sunday of the month at 7pm.

We don’t limit our discussions to coffee shops though! Once and a while we plan to discuss the book over dinner at a restaurant or after reading a book we occasionally watch the movie to compare, just for the fun of it!

The types of books we will be reading are fiction – best sellers or generally just good books. We will pick the book together at each meeting, so feel free to make suggestions! The books we have read (or are about to read are below – if you’d enjoy them, than this is the book club for you!)

We are looking for about 4-6 more people. (We try to have 6-10 people at each meeting)
