Do you like to read and make new friends? 11 Years ago I lived in Nerja  and started a Book Club. The Club still exists and is thriving. Now I live in Velez and would like to start a second Book Club. All Nationalities and ages welcome. 

I am Dutch, but the Club will be English spoken. We read a variety of books.  Happy to give you more information. Patty.

Hi, Unfortunately I am not resident, but visit my son and family in Velez Malaga on a regular basis. Would it be possible to join on a temporary basis and join the group for the book discussion when I'm available. I look forward to hearing from you.            Kind regards Jacqueline

Hi Jacqueline! Thank you for your interest!

Of course you would be welcome. In Nerja we have several members that are here only for a few months a year.

You are the first person to react to my message. Hopefully there will be more people interested.

Let me know if you get this message and we can exchange phone numbers. 

Hope to meet or talk to you soon! Best regards, Patty

Hi! Thank you for your interest!  We as a group vote on a book that we would like to read. Recommendations are always welcome. We meet once a month and discuss and rate the book we have read. In Nerja we always meet at the sane place where we can also drink or snack something. We have one thing in common: we love to read! We read a variety, bestsellers, detectives, biographies etc. Let me know if you would be interested! Great way to meet new people! Patty

Ah ok. So you would read a different book each month and talk about it. Obviously, you would have to buy the book. Are they always newly published books (expensive) or also books that have been out for years? Also, I am away for a couple of months, usually twice a year. Would that be a problem?

Hi, no problem if you are away part of the year. To keep cost down, most of us have an e-reader, like an Amazon Kindle. Cheaper than buying a book, either just published or older. We read both. Where are you located, here in Velez? At least there are no further costs involved, unless we find a suitable place in town, which will be difficult, probably all too noisy. That is why I am suggesting my place. What kind of book do you like to read? Hope this info helped! Saludos , Patty.
