"The Reading Group," by Elizabeth Noble
The Reading Group follows the trials and tribulations of a group of women who meet regularly to read and discuss books. Over the course of a year, each of these women’s lives becomes intertwined, both through the books they read and the real-life stories they tell.
Inspired by a shared desire for conversation, a good book and a glass of wine, Clare, Harriet, Nicole, Polly and Susan undergo startling revelations and transformations despite their difference in background, age and respective dilemmas.
In The Reading Group, Noble reveals the many complicated paths in life we all face as well as the power and importance of friendship.
I have to say this is one of the best books I have read in a while. You truly get immersed into the characters lives, once you have figured of who is who and what's what! Add into info on what book they are reading each month and you have a super book, with lots of other recommendations of what to read next.
I have had mixed results being involved in book clubs; and have found they are not really my thing, but this small group of women made me think I would like to try it again, as long as it was just a few people.
Stars out of 5 : 5 I could really relate to everyone of these women in what they were going through. Not that I have experienced what happened to them, but the way their stories were told made you think you were there with them.
I bought this book through Book Outlet for my own personal use. I buy a lot of books through them and if anyone else would like to buy here is my referral link: http://bookoutlet.ca/Loyalty/Referral?raf=Bop2NWm6&c=url
