Novel Lovers of Sonoma County, CA (formerly Novel Lovers of Sebastopol) is a book discussion group where we talk in depth about contemporary literary fiction. We choose a book a month and all agree to read it (I know that's not always a requirement for a book club!) and then we get together on a Sunday afternoon to discuss it. The specific Sunday varies from month to month, so check each individual meeting. Questions? Email Joan Price, organizer.

We are and aspire to be a diverse group of readers who like to read and explore many facets through the lens of some thought provoking authors. All ages are welcome to join.
