Aldreth Vintage Fair Book Stall

 

The library had a stall selling books in the Aldreth Village Centre on the day of their Village Fair, a fine and sunny day. With a busy start to the event, the book stall raised £36.80 for the library. Four of Sid’s book, A Naughty Boy, were also sold, raising £20 for the Local History Group. Added to the publicity generated by the event, it was an enjoyable and worthwhile event.

 

Book Club

Our friendly Book Club meets on the third Tuesday of the month in the Library at 3.30pm. We welcome anyone who enjoys reading and likes
talking about books. We don't do 'lit crit' but we discuss why we like/didn't like the book choice. We exchange tips on recent reads that we think others might enjoy, and then wander on to a wide range of subjects. You don't have to buy the books – we take turns to choose a book from a Cambridgeshire Libraries multi-copy list. If you are interested in joining us, send a request to Sally via info@haddenhamlibrarycambs.co.uk or give your contact details to a Library Volunteer.

 

Upcoming read:

Next month's book, also set in the 1930s, is the polar opposite of Hemingway's: 'Cold Comfort Farm' by Stella Gibbons, allegedly (according to its blurb) "probably the funniest book ever written". We'll be meeting on 19th May to discuss it. As always, everyone is welcome, and we can supply the book in advance.

To join us, speak to a Library volunteer, or drop a line to info@haddenhamlibrarycambs.co.uk.
