Cinnamon Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 So, I was in Tesco, & it was a toss up between 2 books. THIS ONE ended up in my trolley,purely because it has a chicken on the cover I have just finished it,& happily it was very good indeed,about a woman whose husband steamrollers her into a move to the country,& the adjustments she has to make to her life. Lots of chickens in it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I know what you mean! I was very tempted to pick that up in WHSmiths a few weeks back...also just because it had a chicken on the cover It did sound interesting though, glad that you enjoyed it.

Scramble Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Very kind of you to offer but I have book vouchers so I'll pick up my own copy sometime and let others share it It is a good idea, it just might take some time to get back to you ... I'm sure that most members of the forum would like to read it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackrocksrock Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 It would be nice to also see where in the country it actually had been to and hopefully people will write in the town/city where they are. I would like to go on the list too please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeckyBoo Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 An Omlet Library!!! I read a good book, called "Things I want my Daughters to know" about a woman dying of cancer and the letters she wrote her daughters for them to read after she was gone. It's chicklit but a good bedside, non-braintaxing read. Happy to pass that on if anyone wants as well... (but there are no chickens either on the cover OR inside ) BeckyBoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made me cry so much! I read a book recently called Hens Dancing by Raffaella Barker. I only bought that one because of the title and that hens were on the cover and mentioned in the blurb.

Valkyrie Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Can I join please, I've been going through my Discworld books again - nice to have something different to read. Sounds like my cup of tea - although if it were me writing the book it would be me bulldozing OH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Rather than join the list for Cinnamons book I've ordered a copy from the library ( ohthe joys of online library book ordering!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henriette Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Would love to join the "book club" too but probably not easy because of the cost of sending the book(s) to France. I would, however, be very happy to forward postal cost, but maybe that would be a bit complicated. I could suggest sending to my son in the UK but, love him very much as I do, I think the book would still be on his to do list in 5 years time!

(but there are no chickens either on the cover OR inside ) BeckyBoo If you liked that,may I recommend 'The household guide to dying' by Debra Adelaide? It is a fantastic book, one that I have spoke about here before (in fact Claret took my copy on her hols!),. The humor is darkest black, as a woman loses her battle with cancer. Its is just beautifully written,not at all morbid AND THERE ARE CHICKENS IN IT TOO!!! Really, buy it now................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I started this book last night, its great, the story bowls along nicely which is always good I am more than half way through so this will be winging its way to Beckyboo by the weekend Thanks for sending it Sarah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleTree Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I was thinking about this thread the other day, but couldn't remember what it was called. I spotted the book in the library the other week, so I've now read it. So can you take me back off the list again? I really enjoyed it, and it made me cry a few times, which is always a sign of a good book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
