What we’re about
Welcome to the Bury Me In Books Edinburgh Book Club! 📚✨
Are you passionate about diving into captivating stories, exploring new worlds, and discussing the depths of character development over a cup of coffee or a pint? Then this is the group for you!
Each month, we'll open up selection on instagram for the monthly book from a selection of fiction books. From timeless classics to contemporary bestsellers, our bookshelf knows no bounds! 📖💬
Just a few group rules:
- Attendance: Going forward, we’ll be introducing a 3-strike policy. If you don’t attend an event or don’t give at least 24 hours’ notice on 3 occasions, we may need to remove you from the group. I really don’t want to do this, but it’s important to be mindful of the tables we book and those on the waiting list when deciding whether to attend.
- Sharing the Conversation: We want to make sure everyone has a chance to share their thoughts on the book, so please try not to dominate the conversation. If you speak over others, it can limit the opportunity for everyone to chime in!
- WhatsApp Chat: Let's try to keep the chat focused on the book club—updates, discussions, and event details. It’s not ideal for personal messages or promoting other groups, as it can get cluttered for those who just want book-related info.
- Respect & Welcoming Atmosphere: Above all, let’s be respectful and kind to one another, and make sure all attendees feel welcome at events. A friendly and inclusive vibe is what makes this group special!

100 Best Books Book Club - One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest - Ken Kelsey
Milnes Bar, 35 Hanover Street, Edinburgh, GBOne Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest - Ken Kelsey
Boisterous, ribald, and ultimately shattering, Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is the seminal novel of the 1960s that has left an indelible mark on the literature of our time. Here is the unforgettable story of a mental ward and its inhabitants, especially the tyrannical Big Nurse Ratched and Randle Patrick McMurphy, the brawling, fun-loving new inmate who resolves to oppose her. We see the struggle through the eyes of Chief Bromden, the seemingly mute half-Indian patient who witnesses and understands McMurphy's heroic attempt to do battle with the awesome powers that keep them all imprisoned.
