January meeting & March Book - Only the Animals by Ceridwen Dovey

Hi
We met at Stella's - Sue E and Sue W, Pat R and Pat S, Maggie and Ros attended.

Stella and Pat particularly liked The Railwayman's Wife, and found it dealt well with the issue of grief.  Others generally liked the book well enough, but not always well enough to recommend to others. Trying a bit too hard?  Sue took copious notes, I didn't so better have a look in the book!

Next month (Feb) is early in the month - 22 Feb, so hurry up with your reading of Madame Bovary. We will be meeting at Sue W's.

We decided to do Ceridwen Dovey's book, Only the Animals in March. Ros will host. Thanks Ros.

November meeting, February book - Madame Bovary

November meeting, February book

I'm writing this us way beyond the time, just to make the blog complete. We met at Moy's place for a delicious lunch -  thanks to Moy for making such creamy lovely quiches, served with salad. The traditional cheesecake I can still remember months later. Most liked the Kate Atkinson book, Life after Life. We decided it is time for the classic, so we will be reading Madame Bovary by Flaubert for the February book.

Cheers
Patricia
