For those who love the written word, there’s nothing like sinking into your sofa and curling up with a good book. But, have you ever completed a novel and just needed to discuss what you’ve just read? This is exactly where book clubs come in and if you aren’t a part of one – the Festival Plaza Book Club is one you need to join.
The Festival Plaza Book Club meetings take place once every month. The next event is on Saturday, June 26 and it will take place at KARE store on the ground floor of Festival Plaza, Jebel Ali at 10.30am.
