Book Share report from Jayne

 Interesting debate on this month’s book, Blood and Sugar by Laura Shepherd Robinson. Nobody really liked the storyline but people were drawn into the book, a sign if a good writer. Some of the discussion revolved around the list of characters at the front with supporters and opponents.

Three books were highly recommended,
The Swift and the Harrier by Minette Walters,
Carrying Albert Home by Homer Hickam (all true except the parts which aren’t)
Gilead by Marilynne Robinson.

If you fancy and afternoon chat, focussed on books and related topics, there is space on Bookshare. Just let Jayne know
Bookshare travelled down memory lane. On BBC Sounds you can find the Navy Lark and Gambits by Eley Williams You TV is showing Whitstable Pearl and Sister Boniface. Members travels have taken them to old haunts, with differing outcomes.
Other recommendations from Bookshare include the Joe Pickett and Hoyt/ Dewell series by C. J. Box as well as Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
