We usually meet on the second Tuesday of the month at 7:30 PM. Because of the ongoing pandemic, last year we met online. The first few meetings this year have been held in person outside as the weather has been mild. Once the cold weather makes outside meetings unpleasant we will have to decide whether we will continue meeting online or restart in-person meetings indoors. For reference, here is the complete list of book suggestions we voted on this year:
