For mums dying to read a book for themselves

A few weeks back, I followed a post in the Sydney Mums Group discussion group with interest. Members were discussing where to find local book clubs they could join - that is, book clubs for adults, not for kids.



As an avid reader, I decided to turn to the website Meetup for advice. It's for finding like-minded people. You enter a search term, such as 'book club' or 'playgroups', and a location, and you get emailed notifications of (face-to-face) meetup groups, you might be interested in joining. Or, you can start your own...

This fab community networking site enabled me to compile a list of book clubs that might appeal to members of Sydney Mums Group. Here's the lowdown...
