  • Wimbledon Book Club

     I enjoyed meeting the group of people who attended;although, it did feel nerve wrecking on the way to the cinema once there I couldn't see what all the fuss was about. I did not feel uncomfortable in my surroundings, I had many laughs and I was one of the members who remained with the group until closing time in the bar. Soooo I will definitely will be attending another meet. Thank you to everyone who made me feel welcome.

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     My first bookclub meeting proved to be packed with very interesting and stimulating conversation. Other members extremely welcoming, looking forward to getting my teeth in to future books and enjoying diverse opinions/recommendations of other members.

     Wimbledon Bookclub has made living in Southwest London much more interesting. The wide range of titles on the reading list encourages me to branch out, and I am often enlightened by my fellow bookclubber's opinions/interpretations on the text, approaching different angles which I haven't thought of before. I highly recommend it!

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     I really like this book club. Right from the first one I attended I found it a very welcoming and inclusive group. The evenings are a lot of fun and I've definitely read books I wouldn't have done otherwise and been really surprised to have enjoyed them and especially discussing them with others and getting other points of view.

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     I've dabbled in a couple of other book clubs and this is the one which stands out as the best. The members are wide ranging in age, gender and experience, but what they seem to have in common (open-mindedness, intrigue and autonomy of interpretation) works really well. Additionally, the texts are catholic - from sci-fi to real classics (Frankenstein, Rebecca) - and variety is, as they say, the spice of life.

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     This is a really dynamic book club, very friendly and open to everyone. We read a great variety of books and there's never any shortage of things to say :-)

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     A good opportunity to discover books which you might not normally come across & then find out what other people made of them 

    on Feb 10, 2009.

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     This is a friendly, relaxed and welcoming group with an excellent facilitator. Very diverse choice of books, interesting and friendly members who always generate stimulating discussion; the group also organises adhoc cinema trips ...

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     Great book club - everyone gets an opportunity to give their opinion and no-one judging others opinions. Very friendly group and well organised.

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     A lovely friendly group of people from a wide range of backgrounds. Worth looking in. 

    on May 17, 2010.

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     The people in the group were so friendly, and the group was small enough for everyone to express their thoughts to the other group participants, whilst also being large enough for small groups to form to discuss similar ideas with each other. Very flowing conversation, engaging and compelling people. 

    on Feb 8, 2010.

  • Wimbledon Book Club

     Others should join the group if they are keen to discuss books with others who have also read the book, and have an external impetus for starting and finishing books. The platform provides a context for getting hold of the thoughts of others on the same subject.
