Alexandria Literary Fiction Meetup Group for 30s and 40s
|
Come to discuss your next favorite book! We'll stick to literary fiction, since there's generally not as much to discuss about very light fiction (as much as I love it). We'll try to meet monthly and organize polls to pick books that appeal to the most members. We'll also discuss the way that books we choose reflect themes from our generation or what we notice about other generations. There will be a $3 fee for each meetup to defray the cost of having the meetup website.
