This group started back in 2012, when Silhill u3a was newly formed. We have stretched our minds quite considerably by reading a broad selection of books over the years.

We choose our books for the year ahead and try to cater for all of our group member's tastes - Detective fiction, historical novels, chick lit, magic realism, classic fiction and the occasional non-fiction genre are included in our mixture of books to read.
The person who chose that month's book leads the conversation. Discussion questions are distributed via email a few days beforehand and a lively discussion then ensues.
A good time is had by all and even if opinions on books vary, we really enjoy chatting about them.
This group is currently full. However, if you want to join a bookclub, please go to Bookworms Group 3 as it has room for new members.
If you just want suggestions for a book to read next, take a look at the 2026 reading list below.
