Reading Groups

Welcome to Hooked on Books

Do you like to try something new and discover new authors? If the answer is yes then the reading group could be just the place to start. Reading Groups are a great way to try out a range of different books and authors and to share your reading experiences with other readers. Your next favourite author may be just around the corner waiting to be discovered...
