A dynamic book club that meets monthly to discuss uplifting novels

This group meets every month to discuss a Fantasy book.  Each month we have a theme or subgenre, and make suggestions for books under that theme in a discussion thread.  Then we vote in a poll to determine the specific book we will read for the meeting.  The book is determined about a month in advance of the meeting. If you like reading a variety of Fantasy books, and are in the Coquitlam area, we'd be happy to have you join us!
