[close] A monthly book club that fits the books to the holidays or seasons! We have two owners from whom we will alternate the book choices. (Billie and Nessa) Billie: Hello my name is Billie! I love reading anything from gorry horror to hard-hitting contemporaries to romance. I am a life-long reader and my favourite book ever is The Hobbit! Nessa: Hii! I'm Nessa :) I typically enjoy horror or thrillers! Anything with a good plot twist gets me! I love a hint of romance or girlhood in a thriller, that has to be my kryptonite! I'm a fairly new reader so there's so many things on my list to read, so excited to share them!<3
