January Kate Atkinson, Elizabeth Jolley in March

I'm a bit slow updating the Book blog. But we did read When Will There be Good News by Kate Atkinson in January and it was well rated by the group.

next month we are meeting on March 5 to discuss Brian Dibble's biography: Doing Life: a biography of Elizabeth Jolley.

We will also vote on the 2008 books which were:

The Broken Shore, Peter Temple
What is the What, Dave Eggers
Orpheus Lost, Janette Turner Hospital
Return of the Native, Thomas Hardy
Water for Elephants, Sara Gruen
Beloved, Toni Morrison
My Invented Country, Isabel Allende
When Will There be Good News, Kate Atkinson
