Those delicious cheesy bites with added pepper crunch - yum yum. See side for Nikki's recipe! The book: an easy, enjoyable, interesting read. Some found the characterisation to be slightly shallow especially the child Kit, who was always perfect and lovely? What child is that? Atmospheric and even handed in it's portrayal of the island under the German Occupation. We all enjoyed the book and the literary society it portrayed. It has kindled an interested in some of the authors and books mentioned - Charles Lamb anyone. One of our absent members emailed her comments (thanks Amanda) "The book was great, very Jane Austen. Characters well drawn. It felt like unwrapping slowly a present, as the story unfolded."
Words to describe it: enjoyable, atmospheric, charming, let down, interesting. Marks out of 10: between 6 - 8, so quite a high scoring book which we would recommend others read.
