Comments: Very intriguing story. Liked it a lot. (Mariann)

In the beginning ...

Our book club started in November 2011 and was all Avril's idea. I think:) Our aim is to meet once a month, read a good book and have a nice chat. And perhaps a drink. And cake! In other words, a completely normal book club. (Mariann)
