The Conifer Library's Prize Winning Book group is looking for new members. We meet (generally) the last Tuesday of every month (holidays are different) and are active in the local community. We get authors in, work with Evergreen on combo events and are in the Conifer Christmas parade. We even came in 2nd this year!
We are a serious book group in that we do actually read the books and like to talk about the books. If we want to socialize too we usually do that afterwards or on a separate event other than the book group night at the library.
We meet at 6:30 and end at 8pm as that's when the library closes. Here's our list of books for 2016. We'll vote again late spring/early summer for 2017 so get involved and get to meet new people and books you wouldn't normally.
Typically, folks come to one meeting and see what they think before actually joining so feel free just to show up and see what you think of us.
