Come to Wellesley Books’ lunchtime book group. Betty Sudarsky, unparalleled bookseller and experienced book club leader, chooses each book carefully and leads the discussion. Bring your own lunch if you like; Betty supplies snacks, drinks, and insight. No need to sign up as drop-ins are welcome. See the list of previous Lunchtime Book Group picks below.

We have resumed in-person book club meetings with a concurrent Zoom option.
