Books ! There are over 30 reading groups in Frome - and for this group you can join the presenters by sending in news of your reading group, or making comments about the book under discussion by emailing books@nullfrome.fm – you don’t even have to leave home !

On 26th April, Frome’s second bookseller Peter Foster was our guest, and the presenters have picked classics that they read when children, including The Water Babies by Charles Kingsley, Peter Pan and Wendy by J M Barrie, James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl, Black Beauty by Anna Sewell, and Little Women by Louisa M Alcott, and the Billy Bunter books by Frank Richards – quite a range !

Our May 24th we look at Frome based books – The Doors of Time by Andrew Saunders and The Doll Maker by Nina Allen.

And on 21st June we will be broadcasting live from Frome Library. Crime books are a very popular genre for borrowing, and we have picked Anne Cleeves – of Vera and Shetland fame – as our author under the spotlight. Do drop and chat to us !
