The Bay Seniors Book Club meets at a member’s home once a month to discuss and share ideas around the featured book. The Halifax Public Library has accumulated a selection of book kits.

Reading books that may not be part of your usual choices and being prepared to report your reaction to events in a novel, requires reflection and organizing your thoughts. These activities help to keep the brain alert and functioning, and the social aspect of the book club helps combat isolation and loneliness.

Members appreciate varying points of view and responses that reflect personal experiences. As a group, we also have the opportunity to learn about each other, our tastes in literature, our experiences that help form our opinions.
