Welcome to LitSoc - a safe haven for literature lovers! We are a welcoming, fun and inclusive society for all those who enjoy literature in any form. If books are your thing, you've come to the right place. 

From romance to horror, we are excited to engage in all types of literature. We also will be running discussion groups on texts, feedback groups on essays for uni assessments, and plenty of fun socials (both non-alcohol and alcohol socials)

Here is what the price of your membership enables you to access: 

- Regular emails updating you on society matters and reminding you of upcoming events
