2nd book for 2017

The second book for our group for 2017 is Margaret Atwood's Hag Seed. We'll be meeting in early April to discuss the book, which is a retelling of Shakespeare's The Tempest.

It's hard to believe, but we haven't done a Margaret Atwood book since 1999, when we read The Handmaid's Tale

Best books for 2016

In 2016 we read six books. We voted on the top books for the year and the first three were:

1. All the Birds Singing by Evie Wyld. 2. H is for Hawk by Helen Macdonald. 3. The Golden Years by Joan London.

All three are by female authors and two by Australians, although Wyld lives in the UK.
