Do you like films? And reading? Then Read It, Watch It, Talk About It could be just for you. This brand new group meets monthly to watch films that have been adapted from books. Think Hunger Games, Harry Potter and Twilight and you're on the right lines. As well as watching the adaptations we all know so well this group will also delve into films and books that might not be so familiar - Brighton Rock and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.

This month's screening will be Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist based on the novel by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan.

It's been three weeks, two days, and 23 hours since Tris broke up with Nick. And now here she is at his gig, with a new guy. How could she have moved on so fast? This begins the night of Nick, Norah and Manhattan. The night of stripping nuns, hotel ice rooms, Russian food, psychotic ex-boyfriends and lovingly trashy ex-girlfriends. It's the night of Julio and Salvatore. The night of holding hands and writing songs and singing in the rain. It's a night they'll never forget.

We are delighted that we will be joined online by Rachel Cohn after the screening for a Q&A session and to give her insight into the process of transforming her novel into a movie.
