Upcoming read - One Day by David Nicholls

The next book, which we will be reading in August, is One Day by David Nicholls. It's had some rave reviews so let's see if it's worthy of its hype.

Get in touch if you are interested in joining our group - we've got room for new members.

April's book - Major Pettigrew's Last Stand

We really enjoyed Room, the consensus being that the 5 year old Jack was well realised and utterly believable, and the book was read by all in a couple of days flat!

Our next book for the 7th April discussion is Major Pettigrew's Last Stand by Helen Simonson, described as "An enchanting, humorous and heart-warming novel set in an English village".

Sounds good! Look forward to seeing you in April.

Inaugural gathering

We are going to have our first gathering on Thursday 3rd March at 7.30pm. March's book is Room by Emma Donoghue.

Here's what it says on the back:

"Jack is five. He lives with his Ma. They live in a single, locked room. They don't have the key. Jack and Ma are prisoners."

Sounds intruiging and will hopefully lead to some lively discussion!
