Love reading? Love to talk about books you've read? Come join us for lively discussions on all types of fiction and non-fiction. We'll feature different titles and authors each month. Come and share your impressions, thoughts and interpretations of a book we have all read.

This week we will be reading A Psalm for the Wild Built by Becky Chambers.

It's been centuries since the robots of Panga gained self-awareness and laid down their tools; centuries since they wandered, en masse, into the wilderness, never to be seen again; centuries since they faded into myth and urban legend. One day, the life of a tea monk is up-ended by the arrival of a robot, there to honor the old promise of checking in. The robot cannot go back until the question of "What do people need?" is answered. But the answer to that question depends on who you ask, and how. They're going to need to ask it a lot.
