Hi
We met at Sue Woods place - a good roll-up - didn't break up till 5.45pm! Lots to talk about with Annabel by Kathleen Winter - the issues raised and the book itself. We are mostly recommending the book to friends.
November book is by Anna Funder - All that I am. I'm looking forward to it very much. We meet at Clare's. There is a review at:

The January book is Lorrie Moore's A gate at the stairs at my place. It as been on our list of possibles for a while. We have a new policy in choosing books - we are trying to get away from choosing the book that every other book group is choosing this week!
I saw 2 reviews of the Lorrie Moore, one positive, one not positive at all! But we like a bit of controversy.
