Last bookclub of the year!

Hi there everyone,
Well tomorrow is officially the last book club of the year and Christmas will soon be upon us. But most importantly its summer and that means summer reading and lazying about with a stack of novels that I havn't been able to get to during the year.
I love to fossick through the various Summer reading guides from my favourite booksellers,

I hope you have enjoyed Norwegian Wood, have a look at the offical movie trailer, makes me want to go to Japan.....

See you tomorrow at Gordon White Library at 6pm,

Cheers! Margaret

What we are reading for November......

This months read comes from the SLQ Bookclub collection, 'Norwegian Wood' by Haruki Murakami.
It has sold more than 4 million copies in Japan and is a story about a college student's coming of age. For more details, check it out here

See you on the 29th November for our final Book Club of the year!

So what are we reading now? Two Book club sets have arrived from the State Library of Queensland and I introduced one at the last Book Club....

If you want to see the questions we will attempt to discuss! http://www.litlovers.com/reading-guides/13-fiction/668-mister-pip-jones?start=3

As we do two books a session and do a swap around, The Snow Child was handed around again.

If you have a copy of the Dressmaker or The Boat, I will shower you with chocolate, as I have one copy of each gone astray......

I will introduce the second SLQ book club set this Thursday at Gordon White Library at 6pm.

Looking forward to catching up with everyone,

Margaret
