The Cottage Readers meet the first Thursday of each month at Marlene Schreader's cottage in historic downtown Franklin. Anyone is welcome to join the group at any time during the year.
Each month, a different book is read and discussed. Facilitators rotate and the group decides in November which books will be read the following year.
Please Note 2013: The book club will meet the 2nd week of July (July 11) instead of July 4.

7:00 p.m.: We adjourn to the living room for a lively discussion.
8:30-9:00: Wrap up!
