Hi Ann Please, may I join? I may not have much time this side of Christmas but will read what I can. I will enjoy meeting other authors, it's easy to get stuck in a rut and re-read old favourites all the time. Sheila

Norah, there is a review thread on here to see what people write. We have a given book to read and when we have read it we write a critique about it. Nothing complicated, just to see whatw e thought of the book. Not got a book to read yet, we are only just getting off he ground again. Welcome by the way. ann Glos

I must be the only person in the world who liked Cloud Atlas - what's wrong with me ??!! Norah - you will be most welcome. We just have to write a little about what we thought of the book/s. Doesn't have to be anything fancy - mine certainly aren't! Its really interesting to see other people's take on something - amazing how differently we can all interpret stuff sometimes! Maz. XX

Kaye, I have managed to get the books from the library, our will pull them in from another one in the county for 70p. I have also bought a copy if I wanted it, like Rebecca, or sometimes youc an get them in Charity shops if they are older books. all welcome, doesn't matter if you can't manage every month. ann Glos

Phoenix Report 4 Oct 2005 17:09

I am interested, but I can't guarantee that I will participate every month - depends how busy life gets. But I do really like reading and could do with something new to get into. I assume you get the books from your library or do you all manage to pick up cheap copies? Always thought it sounded quite fun and interesting. Kaye x
