Bonn Speculative Fiction Group

BSFG was founded in April 2019 and currently has more than 140 members. Meetings take place in person and they read a new book every month. You can join meetings even if you haven't finished the book yet, you also do not have to talk if you don't want to!
Reading speculative fiction is more than an escapist past-time. The power of speculative fiction should not be underestimated as it can change the way we see things. It also gives us pleasure. Yet, we sometimes forget to read for pleasure and not just for a term paper or a final exam… Let’s change that!
