Like reading and chatting about books?
Join Rapid Reads, where we read books/novellas of less than 200 pages and then get together to discuss them over a cuppa.
The group meets on the fourth Tuesday each month, 6pm to 7pm at Redbridge Central Library. You can also join online via Teams.
On 27 October, for Black History Month, we’ll be discussing:
- If Beale Street Could Talk by James Baldwin
- Assembly by Natasha Brown
- Passing by Nella Larsen
- Every Light in the House by Andrea Levy
Some other suggested Rapid Reads from the Quick Reads selection are:
- Hello Mum by Bernadine Evaristo
- Notting Hill Carnival: A West Side Story by Candice Carty-Williams
These are suggested books only, so feel free to read any other books suitable for Black History Month with fewer than 200 pages. You can then recommend your read/s to others at the book chat. We’d love to hear your thoughts and recommendations!
