This group is for women from 21-30 who love to read (especially love stories) .After graduating college and entering the real world it can be hard to find where you fit in. This is the perfect place to meet new people, have fun, drink wine, and indulge in steamy romance novels. We will meet every month to every 2 weeks over a glass of wine to discuss the novel and just do some "girl talk".

Join together every fourth Thursday of the month with other 20-somethings from the Mundelein area to sample brews and discuss good books. Must be 21 years old or older. Young 30s are also welcome. After every book club meetup, Fremont Library will gather several copies of the next featured book, including audiobooks. You need not have a Fremont Library card to attend the discussion or to check out at our library. For more information call 847-918-3225.
