Classics

[close] Welcome to the Flappers and Philosophers Book Club. While the name of this book club itself derives from F. Scott Fitzgerald's collection of short stories, there are no limitations as to what can be read and discussed here. If you've read a book and you would like to share your thoughts, or perhaps start an interesting discussion around a particular topic, then please share! We would love to hear it! Everybody is welcome. _____ On the first Monday of every month, the #BookOfTheMonth shall be posted in the group. This will be randomly selected out of a list of titles. The discussion for this book will open on the first Monday of the following month, after the next #BookOfTheMonth has been revealed, so as to not spoil the book for anybody. If there is a book that you would like to nominate for #BookOfTheMonth, please message me, and I shall add it to the list.

Previous challenges included Ngaio Marsh, Dorothy L Sayers and Agatha Christie's Miss Marple books - and in 2021 we will be going back to Christie with a selection of her mysteries. We also read and discuss books by many other authors from the era, including a few from other countries.
