We're starting a new year and a new season on Grounds for Discussion! Come along as we ring out the old with Flowers for Algernon and ring in the new next time with a whole new line up of books for 2023 that you'll love reading along with us. We've saved you a seat, so join us at the table!

If you've ever felt your "parent antennae" go up when it got too quiet for too many consecutive minutes in your home, you know that children left to themselves are destined for destruction. If you'd care to discuss how that happens over a classic, join us for this episode when we discuss William Golding's The Lord of the Flies. We've saved you a seat at the table!

Holly Golightly. Classy urbane Manhattan socialite? Or cold-hearted people user? Audrey Hepburn or Anna Delvey? Let us know when you pull up at chair to join us at the table!

As moms of teenage boys, we couldn't help but see the realism in this classic coming of age novel. Join us as we talk turkey on the pitfalls and eccentricities of boys becoming men.

Is there ever a bad time to gossip about fictional characters as if they were real people? If those characters were born in the mind of Miss Jane Austen, then I submit that there is NOT! Join us at the table for a dive into another look at provincial Regency life as we discuss the classic book, Emma.

We talk about the book (sort of) as an excuse to move on to all the other stuff we've been reading. Join us at the table for a reading free-for-all!

Over coffee - and for some of us (ahem, Laura) cake - we discuss this intriguing classic by Thomas Hardy. The often-jettisoned subtitle (The Life and Death of a Man of Character) only raises more questions for us. What do you think? Grab a cuppa and join us at the table!

Not the discussion of this book you'd hear in a different decade. Join us as we bring our 21st century viewpoints to a 20th century classic. And don't forget your mug of coffee!

Ah, Sherlock....Join us as we talk about our readings of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic story, The Hound of the Baskervilles. Moonlit strolls through craggy moors, howling hell hounds and the greatest detective in fiction. What could be better? Grab a cuppa and join us at the table!

We talk about the Salem witch trials as viewed through The Crucible, through history and through our own modern lenses. Join us at the table!
