March book.

Oh, thank you Greenfinch

I think the email I missed did have a link to that, perhaps that's where the confusion arose.

No you don't get an email about the monthly book. After you have applied it just turns up a couple of weeks later. Apply when it is advertised under Books in the middle of the month.

Jen67 I think you have to look out for an email each month and apply through that.
I usually manage to miss it!!

Thanks GN, have received my book and look forward to reading it (after reading 'The Island' for local book club next Wednesday )

Hi how do I actually join the book club please??

Thanks CariGransnet but Maggiemaybe sorted me out, see below. Apparently it's slightly different on a kindle fire. But I got there.

Never mind, I'll read the reviews then perhaps order one locally - no spoilers please!
unless there is a slightly grubby dog-eared one lurking in corner of the GNHQ office? Under someone's desk? Coffee stains accepted
Please?

Thank you for my copy of the march book, arrived at lunchtime.
Will endeavour to give a better review this month and avoid the wrath of others who thought I was spoiling the book for others.

What a surprise, I received one today. It has really cheered me up, as I'm feeling rubbish. Thanks GN.

This is a certainly a “feel good” book as flagged up in the introduction. The characters are well drawn and the descriptions of the landscape very evocative.
I raced through it once, eager to know what happened and then reread more thoughtfully. I still enjoyed it, but felt that some of the plot lines were a little trite. I couldn’t believe in the emotionally abusive husband who conveniently got himself out of the way or the son who did the same. Not naming them to avoid spoiling!
I am sure this would make a marvellous film and would want to see that landscape for real. Does the author know if this is likely?

I heard my copy was on its way - however, with the backlog of post due to the weather, I won't complain - but I am looking forward to reading this month's book!

I received a copy of the book today! A very welcome start to the week.

Sorted maggiemay be, thanks. I'm on a kindle and tend to whizz through pages so the dropdown had escaped me there.

It’s the first time this week that our postie has been able to do his round Jalima1108 so don’t give up hope!
I missed applying as the daily newsletter goes into a junk folder in my email and I keep forgetting to look.

Never mind, I'll read the reviews then perhaps order one locally - no spoilers please!

What device are you signed in on, gardenoma? The newsletter preferences are there for you to tick, but not with the main account details. I've just had a look and if I'm on my Kindle or smartphone I've to bring up my account details then click on the drop-down arrow at the top right of the page to get to two extra ones - Newsletters and Grandchildren. These just show as extra tabs if I'm signed in on my desktop.

Just a quick question re daily newsletter. I looked into my account info to change settings so as to receive one but there isnt the facility or anywhere else as far as I can see. I never received one nor can I remember being given the option (but might have forgotten that, more likely)

Mine arrived yesterday, postie covered up but expect him to be in his shorts again any day, even though he's thin as a reed, they're a hardy breed! Nice looking cover, always a good start. Think I'll hibernate a few more days to read it. Love that crisp new book feeling especially since mine now tend to be the kindle variety.

I got one today too, also delivered by a postie in shorts - now all I have to do is knuckle down and read it!

Mine arrived today, thank you! It's the first delivery we've had for a few days. Despite the ice and snow still covering every surface, our postie was wearing his shorts too.

My copy arrived thismorning, thank you. Just got to get the last of the decorsting stuff out of the way and I'll settle down to read it this evening.

Thank you very much for my book which just arrived - it looks very good. (It’s the first time this week that our postie has been able to do his round Jalima1108 so don’t give up hope!)

I missed it once again - and it looks very good so I may have to order it from the bookshop!

Thank you for this lovely book. Like a previous poster I galloped through it, thanks to being snowbound indoors. Hurrah!
I will reread and return with a proper review. This book deserves it.
