OLLI at BCC members are invited to join OLLI's Shared Interest Group

Murder, Mystery & Mayhem: A Book Group

for an online discussion 

The Fourth Monday of Every Month

from 1:30 to 3:00 pm Eastern

Free and open to all OLLI at BCC members 

OLLI's Murder, Mystery & Mayhem: A Book Group meets once a month, typically on the 4th Monday at 1:30 pm. Everyone is welcome. We typically meet for no more than 1.5 hours. Historically, the meetings were at someone’s house. Since the pandemic, however, the gatherings have been Zoom-based.

Books are selected one year in advance… and are not your typically hot present-day offerings. At the meetings, we discuss the chosen book, of course, but often we talk about other books we are reading, movies we have seen, serials we’ve watched/are watching on TV, etc.

Please contact Bruce Cohen for additional information and to receive the Zoom link.
