Want to discuss great books with like-minded friends in Orange County?
The concept is simple. We’re a global book club for likeminded women to discuss great books! All members of the book club read the same book over the same period; members then meet up in their respective cities at the end of each month to discuss the book and exchange views.
What we are reading...

Detective Chelsey Calhoun’s life is turned upside down when she gets the call Ellie Black, a girl who disappeared years earlier, has resurfaced in the woods of Washington state—but Ellie’s reappearance leaves Chelsey with more questions than answers.

Hi!
Believe that I tried this last year… But somehow missed the comment in reply. I would love to give it another shot. Is it too late to join the October meeting?
