Summer's long gone....

Well we had another lovely night...a little low on numbers (you were missed ladies who couldn't make it...but hope you had super nights).

We all enjoyed the book, some felt it left her feeling like she wanted more though.  We thought it was very well written and fairly easy to read...even if some had to use more brain cells than others to keep track of all the characters. The characters and their experiences were very real to life- apart from the whole going back in time! 

The book was funny in places, sad in places, unbelieveable in paces and overall a very good read!

Our next book will be...

'Pay it forward' by Catherine Ryan Hyde
Synopis: It all started with the social studies teacher's extra-credit project: Think of an idea for world change, and put it into action. Whilst this proved a little ambitious for most of his classmates, twelve-year-old Trevor thought he would start by doing something good for three people. But instead of paying him back, he would ask them to "pay it forward" by doing a favour for three more people. If it all went to plan, Trevor thought, it would be the start of a long chain of human kindness ...Sound unlikely to you? Well a lot of other people had their doubts too - Trevor's teacher, his classmates, his mother, in fact everyone in his small California town. It could never really work...could it?
