Book Club Secret Santa

For the next book club meeting we're going to do the book secret santa! (sorry for the late notice). At Christmas time the Clapham book group do a secret santa. If you want to take part, bring a book wrapped up to the meeting on Wednesday to add to the sack and pick out a new one. It doesn't matter if its new or second hand. As the next meeting is so close to Christmas, this will be the Christmas meeting.

Next meeting is on the 9th of December, 7pm at the Rookery. See post below for more details.
