We are a diverse group of people who enjoy both books and movies. Our group is unique in that we will read a book (usually yet to be released to film) and then watch the movie together (generally the week it opens or week after) and after watching the film, get together for really great discussion on the book and the movie. There is no stern format. The group leads the way of the discussion and everyone is open-minded. We generally meet on Saturday afternoons. Movies have been seen at Trader's P …
