Reading with Spiritual Eyes Book Club

All are welcome to join our free book club where we explore four or five fiction books each year. Our chats are face-to-face with an option to join us via zoom. Details of the current book with possible discussion questions can be found, together with a list of all previous titles.

Books for sale

For some years we have had books for sale from a very generous donation. There are still some gems in pristine condition that would make excellent presents for family and friends (or treats for yourself!).
