In our book group, each member takes a turn of hosting at their home (if they have enough space), and chooses the book to be discussed. We read novels, short stories and non-fiction. Members suggest a long list of titles and we make a final selection from this.
In 2022-23, we considered:
• Where the Crawdads Sing - Delia Owens
• Ice Bound in the Arctic - Michael Smith
• A Long Petal of the Sea - Isabel Allende
• Hello World - Hannah Fry
• Golden Hill - Francis Spufford
• The Girl with the Louding Voice - Abi Dare
• Still Life - Sarah Winman
• Motherwell - Deborah Orr
• The Zookeepers Wife by Diane Ackerman.
• Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak
• Emma by Alexander McCall Smith
• O Caledonia by Elspeth Barker
• Grandmothers by Salley Vickers
• Beartown by Fredrik Backman
• Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
We plan to read The Rising Man by Abir Mukherjee over Summer 2023, and will start the 2023-24 session with The Lincoln Highway by Amor Towles and Talking to the Dead by James Roberson.
