thanks for that Jeanette, yes I agree, I too have read books I wouldn't have considered reading, even after the month for reading them, once I have read the review. In fact yesterday I got Small Island which I didn't read when it was the monthly book but the reviews make me want to read it. Ann Glos

If you're reading this, please consider joining GReaders! I ummmed and arrred about joining as I thought it might be a bit highbrow for me....not being the sharpest tack in the box! lol. But it's not like that at all. Everyone is really friendly and we've read some fantastic books over the last few months. What I've enjoyed about being part of GReaders is that it has introduced me to a whole range of books that I wouldn't have otherwise read. Also I've been chatting with a few different members whom I might not have had any contact with had I not joined in. Jeanette x

Each month we each put forward the titles of two ordinary books - fiction or non fiction - that we want to read plus one classic title. We then vote for two ordinary and one classic. We read as many of the chosen books as we can manage, then at the end of the month, on a given date, we review the books that we have read. (i.e. we say if we enjoyed them, if there was anything special about thm etc, nothing highbrow or complicated). Our book club is called GReaders and if you put this into the search box it will bring up all the previous threads so that you can see what we do. Our next review and book suggestion threads are due on Wednesday 3 January. 07 We could do with new people joining us as our numbers have got a bit depleted lately so please join us. Ann Glos
