We review how the Reading Circle started in Sept 2012 and its aims: to share personal reading experiences; to explore different readings, impressions and insights; to enjoy social company and interaction. How do sessions run? Which books, and how do we choose them? How do we engage with one another? We quote from Julian Barnes‘ ‚A Life with Books‘ and point to the 6 recorded sessions so far in the cba Archive. We summarize, discuss briefly and give a reading from each of the following books chosen from the 32 over the past few years:

1. ‚The Buddha in the Attic‘, Julie Otsuka
2. ‚The Hare with Amber Eyes‘, Edmund de Waal
3. ‚The Narrow Road to the Deep North‘, Richard Flanagan
4. ‚All the Light We Cannot See‘, Anthony Doerr
5. ‚The Sense of an Ending‘, Julian Barnes
