Book Clubs

The Book Clubs are divided into three different groups:

Beginner (A1-A2)

Every 2 months on a Saturday morning at 09.00-10.30, we will talk in French.

Intermediate (B1-B2)

Every 2 months on a Saturday morning at 09.00-10.30, we will talk in English but can switch to French easily.

Expert

2x per month at 09.00-10.30, we'll talk in English.

The theme or book for the Book Club Beginner and Intermediate will be announced 2 months in advance so you will have time to get the book/read the book. This means, when there's a Book Club the 2nd of November, you'll have the theme/title on the 2nd of September. The Book Club Expert works differently: the book/theme will be announced only 1 month in advance. So if there's a Book Club on the 26th of October, you will get the title/theme on the 2nd of September.

If you see a book/theme you're interested in and would like to register, send us an email with subject line "Book Club" to contact@thelittlebookshop.fr. There are six places available per group (for now) and it'll cost €3 if you've bought the book at the shop, otherwise it's €5. There will be snacks/sweets.

Expert - 15/03 SOOO excited! Megan will join us for this Book Club. That's why the event starts at 19.30! To Brooke, image is everything. She works hard to maintain perfect grades, perfect looks, a perfect life – especially after "the incident" that threatened it all. Getting into her dream university puts her that much closer to a fresh start. How can she say no to celebrating with all her classmates? Hanging out with her crush by the bonfire is the perfect end to the night. Except it isn't the end...

Enter GELON: visionary, dreamer, theatre lover. Enter LAMPO: lovesick, jobless, in need of a distraction. Imprisoned in the quarries of Syracuse, thousands of defeated Athenians hang on by the thinnest of threads. They’re fading in the baking heat, but not everything is lost: they can still recite lines from Greek tragedy when tempted by Lampo and Gelon with goatskins of wine and scraps of food. And so an idea is born. Because, after all, you can hate the invaders but still love	Cover The Picture of Dorian Gray An artist paints a beautiful young man called Dorian Gray. When Dorian sees the picture, he decides to give his soul to keep his beautiful face. He lives a bad life and he is bad to many people, but his face never changes.
