    Discussion of Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout- add your comments below!

    I loved this book and admire the author’s ability to weave together 13 disparate stories into a coherent whole. I could identify with Olive, with her conflicting emotions, her up-front nature, her loneliness. She came across to me as a compelling character, real enough for me to be waiting eagerly for her appearance in each of the stories. I felt Strout did characters so very well. I realise now that I have read Elizabeth Strout before and will certainly do so again. Will shut up now to give others a chance to have their say ...and maybe disagree with me!

Book club

This group is for people who like to read a book and discuss it with others. We will choose a book each month from titles suggested by members of the group. We will then return for an on-line discussion at a pre selected date which will be 6 weeks later. Important that we suggest books which are readily available, not too expensive, and not too long.

** Please note that this is a book discussion group. Business posts will not be accepted and members posting these will be removed from the group. SO PLEASE NO ADVERTISING.
