Finishing up,

The group met two more times to talk about The Life Of Pi book and for the final session to sit around together and have a cup of tea and a biscuit. As we were getting ready for exams, we decided that this book club would have to draw to a close as we would all be too busy to be reading and meeting up during the weekends.

Group members reported that they enjoyed the group because it was "A fun thing to do on a Sunday night" and "Gave us an excuse to catch up and see how everyone was getting on". Book club was originally focused on the books, but I think that the main thing that the members got out of it was sitting around in my lounge and having a chat. Book - or non-book related.

The Sunday evening ritual of book club has turned into a ritual of going to Chilli Planet Thai Food and getting Pad Thai with the same group of people. Attending book club, has turned into a social/dinner event where we can talk about our weeks and have a nice dinner together. The group is a similar one to book club and for me, this just reiterates the importance of human interaction be it around common interests or Pad Thai for dinner!
