This is so not my usual sort of read, but I`m really enjoying it, especially the bits taking place in India, a place I`ve always wanted to visit, although I know I never will now.
And...you have beaten me to it with the thread. But yes - do remember that book clubs books are sent out on the basis that you have agreed to read within the given timeframe (June in this instance) - so enjoy, comment and add questions for Meera who will be popping into GNHQ towards the end of the month.
Hi Rubylady - when we preview our upcoming book club choice and giveaway it goes in our newsletter and also on the home page and elsewhere on the site. The links for all the above will take you to a page about the book with a form to fill in - once you have done that you are entered into the draw (which is made at random)
The next preview will be mid June so keep a look out
I'm on the last chapter and it has been compelling reading. The characters are so recognisable and throughout I've been thinking this would make a great film (which I imagine Meera Syal had in mind, too!)
Thank you for my copy. I have already started reading and love it!! Brilliant writing - holds my attention well. Can't wait to see how it all turns out!!
Had to go to PO this morning to pick up a parcel and couldn't think what it could be. Lovely surprise to find I'd got The House of Hidden Mothers. Thank you and I am really looking to reading it having read good reviews.
Just got home to find a copy behind the plant pot at the front door. Good job it came today because we are off to France this evening, so I have holiday reading and the parcel would have been on the doorstep for a week! Rap on the knuckles for the postman.
A lovely surprise this morning when my copy arrived, thank you GN. I am housebound for a week or so, and this looks a fabulous book to get into, I am fascinated by India and Indian culture, so am really looking forward to reading it.
Thank goodness for recycling boxes !For the second time recently our postman has left my book hidden under one of ours. Many thanks for my copy GN. I shall start it in bed tonight.
Thank you so much for my copy of Hidden Mothers which just arrived! And hardback too!! It's my birthday on Monday, so it's a lovely early present! Looking forward to reading it! Thanks again GNHQ
