#4 - To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee (Choice: concensus)(Venue: Taz, Waterloo)

Present: Jen, Sarah, Nic, Doris, Annabel

Generally very well liked as I recall the meeting.

I enjoyed the novel but felt it was dated and simplistic.

#3 - Daniela Deronda - George Elliott (Choice: Jen's)(Venue: The Salt Yard?)

Present: Nic, Doris, Annabel, Jen, Sarah

What can I say - almost universally derided, almost universally unfinished.

#2 - The God of Small Things - Arundhati Roy (Choice: Nic's)(Venue: Zizi)

Present: Nic, Doris, Annabel, Jen, Sarah, Sabine

A favourite of mine but, as I recall, the general concensus was it is pretty dark and depressing.

#1 - The Poisonwood Bible - Barbara Kingsolver (Choice: Jen's)(Venue: The Wolseley)

Present: This one was just me and Jen.

Interesting book and set-up but I found the voice of the youngest character unconvincing.

The W is fab!
