ESM Community Book Club
We are delighted to be able to offer you the opportunity to take part in our new initiative, the ESM Community Book Club. The book club will provide an opportunity to meet with other people from the ESM community whilst talking about books and enjoying some light refreshments.
In advance of each meeting a poll will be issued with a shortlist of books for attendees to vote on then read. We understand that life gets in the way sometimes though so if you haven’t finished the book please don’t be put off from attending (as long as you don’t mind spoilers!). During the meeting time will be divided between informal book chat, structured discussions and fun book related activities.
Our launch event will take place on Thursday 19th March 7-8.30pm in the Old College Library. If you would like to attend please email Lauren and she will send you the Microsoft form to vote on your reading preferences.
When: Thursday 19 March, 7:00 – 8:30pm
Where: SMC Old College Library, 3 Queensferry Rd, Edinburgh EH4 3EZ
