Bringing this to the top so you can see what is what!!

Hi Lesley, it looks as if our reviews of Cloud Atlas have gone - we lost a thread in the middle of last year unfortunately. It will be interesting to hear your views as opinion on here was divided - I liked it, everyone else hated it lol lol!! Maz. XX

Dee I have just been all through the threads and yes I think you are right. Have had a good swear cos I put a lot of time into that - lots of explanations for you poor souls who were struggling grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! Oh well, worse things happen I suppose! Maz. XX

Hi Maz Think I will pass btw was the review of it on the thread Mike pulled? Dee ;-))

Hee hee - perhaps some of the ORIGINAL members would like to read it AGAIN ??!!!!!! hahahahahaha Maz. XX ps - I actually really enjoyed it - our reviews are here somewhere!

Hi Lesley Cloud Atlas was one of the first books we read, possibly some of the newer members of the group may like to read it. Dee x

Hi folks Should I send a search party out to look for Maz? She went off to read poetry, and doesn't seem to have come back!! Dee ;-))

ok I am off to read some poetry - I may be some time lol lol Maz. XX

Hi Lesley Looking forward to seeing what books you choose to add Anyone else want to join us and add some titles? It's not too late, you have until Sunday Dee x

Hi Lesley, Sorry have been off line the past hour. Welcome to Greaders. If youw ant an idea of what had gone before put Greaders into the search facility at the top of the board. All the previous Greader (GR reader) threads will come up. you can then read past reviews. Ann Glos

Welcome to Greaders Lesley Maz, look forward to the poetry Dee xx

Ann, I will find something nice to start us off - will try and sort it out tomorrow, so hopefully there will be a few on there by the time you get back on Sunday! Maz. XX

Hi Lesley, we all suggest books, then we can vote (but not for the ones we suggested ourselves!). We then have a month to read 1 or more of those selected. Then there is a new thread posted up for us to say what we thought of the book(s) - a review but nothing too highbrow as you will see from mine tomorrow!! You are MORE than welcome, the more the merrier!! Please feel free to suggest some books on here and look out for the voting thread on Sunday. Maz. XX ps - coming soon ..... GReaders Poetry thread!

Go for it Ann, I am sure I can manage to nudge occasionally ;-))

I can put the review thread up now . But if I am not here somebody need to nudgethis thread to catch other people. i will then do the book choice Sunday evening. is that OK? Ann Glos

Hi Ann Shall we leave it till Sunday, in case we get interest from people who maybe are only here at weekends? btw, when will you put the review thread up? Dee xx

nudge

Ann I don't mind but I'm off to the Middlesboro meet (yikes) so probably best for me to do it before I go! Kaz :o)

Part 2 of my posting. PC did something odd and jammed so I couldn't finish my posting, and didn't realise part 1 had gone. 2nd fiction suggestion. The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebbold. About a young girl (forgotten her name) who is sexually assauted and murdered . She observes the effect her death has on friends and family from the afterlife. (There's probably a better review than this on Amazon but I'm just getting ready to go to work and am a bit pushed for time) Classic: Vanity Fair by W.M. Thackerwray.

As I am going away for the weekend tomorrow, leaving fairly early, would you prefer the list and results put up this evening or Sunday evening? Ann Glos
