All the leaves are brown (almost)

 

The onset of Autumn brings with it the promise of scarves, driving rain and more time holed up indoors reading books. Ive been reading all sorts but for group, i sped through Sarah Moss’ Cold Earth.

I wasn’t sure of how people would react, as I had found it slow to start, with an infuriating lead narrator, but an inventive premise. The group were not enamoured with the book at all . Mostly due to the characters and their lack of variation and lots of glaring holes in the plot (the internet going down cos of flu? whatevs!)

We also had a visit from a lady who is organising a new and exciting group for creative people on Teesside – you can find out more here and discussed plans for the next book group – when we’ll be looking at Jacob Polley’s Talk of the Town.
