About the Event
The Sisterhood Book Club is a friendly book club for adults discovering and rediscovering female protagonists in classic, modern classic and contemporary world fiction written by women.
We meet monthly to informally discuss a book read in advance, over refreshments at the emporium.
The cost of taking part is the purchase of the book to be discussed (usually £6.99 - £8.99) per month and books are availble to collect a couple of months in advance. Inspired by Penguin books' Sisterhood Collection, previous books have included Anne of Green Gables, Little Women and Pride and Prejudice.
Although this is an adult group, young people aged 14+ are welcome to attend if accompanied by an adult. Everyone should purchase their own copy of the book.
Contact us instore or email us at stories@jacqsondiego.com to join the Sisterhood.
