Intergenerational Readers' Group

Last night I went to sit in on a readers' group meeting in West Bridgeford, NOTTS.

Wow. What can I say? An extraordinary group of insightful readers. A mixture of teenagers and elderly readers, each bringing their own views and experience to bear on reading and discussion about books.

A fifteen year old told me afterwards: 'If someone tells you they don't like reading, it is because they have not found the right book yet'

Now THAT is insight.

The fifteen year old is right - I couldn't agree more!
