June 2012 - Snowdrops by AD Miller

Why, hallo there!

Big thanks to those who ignored last Tuesday's football and came to talk about dirty goings-on in Moscow.  Despite some confusion over Snowdrops turning out not to be written by everyone's favourite English novelist Andrew Miller but instead some other bloke with a suspiciously similar name, we still enjoyed the level of detail and description the imposter was able to instill about Moscow into his debut novel, even if overall the story wasn't quite as exciting or in-depth as we would have liked.

Coming up next month we have another thriller which is more firmly placed in the crime genre: The Redbreast by Jo Nesbø, and a favourite of various members of the group.

We're also coming up to the end of our selections, so if you have any ideas for titles we could do in the later half of the year, please get in touch!  This is a great opportunity for anyone who's not been enamoured with our choices in recent months to get a chance to steer the ship.  Perhaps there's a book you've always wanted to read but need the impetus to do so, or dare to suggest an old favourite you think others might like?  Either let me know, or suggest it yourself at the next meeting!

See you then.
