The Year of Living Danishly - 28th of June




The Colour of Magic was best summed up as marmite, you either love it or hate it. There was a lot going on in the book which made it hard to follow for non-fantasy fans.

Our next book will be The Year of Living Danishly by Helen Russell. 
"A hugely enjoyable romp through the pleasures and pitfalls of setting up home in a foreign land" PD Smith, Guardian 

Other pitched books were:
For Tiber with Love - Isobel Losada
My Brilliant Friend - Elena Ferrante
The Man in the High Castle - Philip K Dick
The Island of Dr Moreau - HG Wells
Mr Mercedes - Stephen King

At our next meeting we'll be choosing our summer read, a longer book that we wouldn't normally pitch. We'll have a special themed meeting after the summer around September/October time.
