Notes from our July meeting

Yes I know it's late but I wanted to get the first set of notes up and running - they come from Rebecca who is the book club convenor.
'Last week we had a smallish but quality turn out at our first meeting for some time.  There were a few recommendations, notably:
Jasper Jonesby Craig Silvey; The Spies of Warsaw by Alan Furst; The Fracture Zone by Simon Winchester; Wild Things by Dave Eggers;  Will Grayson Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan;  The Night Watch by Sergei Lukyanenko; Valley of Grace by Marion Halligan; Post-Birthday World by Lionel Shriver; What the Dog Saw by Malcolm Gladwell; An Offer You Can't Refuse by Jill Mansell; and the Gastronomy of Marriage by Michelle Maistro.
The new titles for this time are:
Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout; A Week at the Airport by Alain de Botton; Widow Clicquot by Tilar J Mazzer; Dear John by Nicholas Sparks; The Book of Love by Phillipa Fioretti; Good to a Fault by Marina Endicott and Rhubarb by Craig Silvey.'
Our next book club meeting is next week so I'll post the notes and whatever comments as soon as I can.
