Book Club

About Book Club

The book club associated with the MHC Club of Southern California is an open forum to discuss books and enjoy a "moveable feast." We happily gather in various locations across LA country, bringing along food and drink to share. We gather about four times a year and typically discuss a book by a female, or non-cis-male, author that takes us to a different place - be it geographical, or a part of society that may be very different from our own experiences. All are welcome, whether they've read the book or not. The discussions are lively, relaxed and take us back to Skinner Green or the Williston Library!
