Spare Copy of Burial Rites Anyone….
Message from our founder,
Hi V,
Thank you for the invitation. I'd love to come along if I can. I have a spare copy of Burial Rites if anyone would like to borrow it. I will take it to coffee on Wednesday and see if Ruthie needs it. I bought a copy for my friend Robyn who would be more than happy to loan it to someone in the group too if needs be. Just let me know if you would like it. My own copy is on my iPad.
I loved the book. I'm sure you will too.
Smiles,
Cheryl

February 2014 - Book of the Month
Hi Ladies
Thanks for a great gathering this morning. So we have agreed on our book for this month and i can't wait to get started, Burial Rites by Hannah Kent. Cheryl if you are free for our March meeting we would love you to come and join us for this book review! C'mon, you know you will want to....
We are all looking very much forward to reading this book, and i have made the prediction that by page 5 (*even a bit earlier is my suspicion) none of us will want to put the book down. Now you can borrow it from the library, this is what Sara did just before xmas, so if you want a hard cover an not an electronic version, put a 'hold' on now. Sara, if you are feeling up to it, it would be great if you can come along and join us.
A bit of background on the story, Burial Rites is a historical fiction set in 1830 that tells the story of the final year in the life of the last woman to be publicly executed in Iceland. The woman is, Agnes Magnúsdóttir. If you would like some more information on the author and reviews you can go and check out Hannah Kent's website http://hannahkentauthor.com/burial-rites-reviews/
Next Meet : 9th March 2014
Time: 7:30am
(*a wee earlier, than usual, but we had agreement, so hope you are all up for it)
Where: Union Street Cafe Spring Hill (*unless of course it isn't open and we need to regroup)
Happy Reading! If i identify the March book earlier than our next meet, i will let you know so, if you finish Burial Rites early and want to start something else, you can have a head start.... I know I will need it :)
Hope you have a great month - (and the family move goes well Jfer)
