Happy New Year!
Bookclub met up last weekend to welcome in the New Year and to discuss our Christmas read which was Karen Joy Fowler's 'We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves'. It was agreed by everyone that this was a great novel, full of unexpected twists, thought-provoking situations and attention-grabbing ideas. I won't reveal too much as I don't want to give any spoilers away - I would just say READ IT!
On a different note, this month we are reading Jon Ronson's 'The Psychopath Test' so February's meeting should prove an interesting one as we all compare results!
A number of our members are on Good Reads online and have signed up for the 2016 reading challenge - I've set myself the challenge of reading 52 books this year, that's one per week! I'd better get cracking!
I've had loads of enquiries recently about joining our Bookclub. Unfortunately, at the moment we are at capacity, the venue can't fit any more people in and I also feel that if we have too many members it becomes difficult for everyone to take part in the discussion and people start to talk over each other.
We're always happy to share our thoughts on what we're reading so please still get in touch if you'd like any ideas about what to read next. Our Twitter feed is also regularly updated with what we're reading @booknantwich
Here's to discovering lots of new favourites in 2016,
Kate
