Frenchman's Creek by Daphne du Maurier

A Frenchman's Creek by Daphne du Maurier

Was discussed briefly before the party. A bodice ripper, fun and entertaining but more suitable for the teenage girl market, which was when a number of us had originally read the book. Enjoyable, lightweight but entertaining - as is Jamaica Inn which one of us had read!
Welcome to our new member Rona!

Next Meeting either

12th December - just under 3 weeks away or 17th January 2008
at Mandy's House, 119 Harbord St.
  • There is some discussion as to which book we should read.
  • Giles's book is
    • The Diary of Dora Damage by Belinda Starling
  • If we go on the weekend trip to Paris, the book suggested was
    • Down and Out in Paris and London by George Orwell (Mandy's book)
Weekend away in Paris.
  • It was suggested that the book club go on a weekend away to Paris at the end January, 26th, leaving early Sat and returning late on Sunday.
  • Who might be interested in this? Please let me (Rowena) or Carolyn know ASAP as Carolyn wants to book Eurotrain and hotel ASASP.
  • A few photo's of our wonderful evening at Giles's and Violetta's. Thank you to them and the juke box for hosting a great evening.
