The Earthsea Quartet

Oh no another bad book! We have had a run of them! Most of us only managed to read the first of the quartet feeling that it really was too childish to continue with the other three. Ursula le Guin did aim the book at the 11 year old boy, when written in the 70's. I remember reading it as a 12 year old and loving them. Not so good coming back as a 40(ish) year old! Words used to describe it - impenetrable, unreadable, childish, not as much fun as Harry Potter! Marks out of 10 1 - 5

Next Book

The Code of Woosters by P G Wodehouse
If you click on the picture of the book it will take you to Waterstones.

Next Meeting

17th December at 127 Harbord St

NB. For a bit of fun we have decided to theme this meeting - 20's, so dig out your old flapper outfits (if you have any!) bob you hair, Chrissie put the champers on ice and get ready to Charleston! Rona to teach us!
