A friendly London Book Group, based in various places in London, but mainly around the Northern Line. We meet once a month either in bars, restaurants or in people's houses, generally on the last Tuesday of the month. We are not currently taking new members, but our 'overflow' group (which has now been going for 4 years) is - you can find them at http://www.abibliophobia.com/. Get in touch - northernlinebookgroup@gmail.com
