Are you a lawyer who loves reading? Or a reader who is fascinated by books about the law and the legal system? Mostly Books is starting a brand new specialist Book Club called the “Law and Literature Lounge” and will have a focus on fiction that depicts law and lawyers. We will look at new fiction and also some classics.
The bookclub will be facilitated by Dr Rachel Spencer who has been a lawyer and legal academic for many years prior to being Assistant Manager of Mostly Books for the past year or so. Rachel will guide the group through an analysis of each month’s book and then facilitate a group
discussion. The first meeting will be at 7.15 pm on Thursday 4 April in the shop.
