There are currently three reading groups that meet at Bridgnorth Library. All the groups enjoy informal sessions in which members discuss the book for that month. The groups read a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction, which could include perennial classics, contemporary prizewinners, light-hearted reads, and hidden gems.
