Hi all,
I just want to say that this is the first book club that I have ever taken part in and I really enjoyed it. I usually avoid book clubs because I HATE having to read anything - it reminds me of school, but I really enjoyed analysing this book and found that I learnt a lot from doing it. I also think that this format ( on-line as opposed to face to face) is very good as we all get to say our piece without interruption and I felt that we all listened to each other. (Well I hope people felt that I listened to them, I felt that my points were heard- thanks.) And I am glad that by being part of this group I may read books that I don't normally pursue; it will broaden my horisons and probably improve my own writing. I tend to make up my mind about books very quickly and often discard a novel based on its first page, but I may lose out sometimes when I do that.
Susan I hope you enjoy the film Chocolat - I always want a cup of hot chocolate when I watch it!
