It is a truth universally acknowledged, that booklovers in possession of a good tearoom, must be in want of a Jane Austen discussion… Therefore, we began in July of 2008 with an aim to meet each quarter to review a Jane Austen book & have a Full Afternoon Tea. We no longer have our Tearoom but meet together over brunch to happily discuss our latest read. We major on Jane Austen and British Victorian classics... Read along with us!
