Perfume

Hello

My choice this month. Perfume by Patrick Suskind.



I really enjoyed this book even the gory bits. An unusual story about a murderer who is driven by the perfum of people.

We ate at the Ewe and Lamb, Rolvenden Layne.



Lovely pub and good main courses. I had steak and it was very tasty. Unfortunately the puddings were a bit of a disappointment. Kath and I ordered Tart Tatin - I think this is normally made with apples - ours arrived topped with pineapple which would have been ok if they had not sprinkled it liberally with chilli (including the seeds) and the pastry was cold in the middle and soggy. The free coffee/tea was ok and the chocolates that came with it lovely.



Happy reading

Hello Book People

We all loved this book. Choosen by Kath - very good choice too.

Highly recommened by us all.

I think it is the best out of all the ones we have read - so far. Made me laugh and cry - mostly cry. There is a teenage boy Jesse who was my favourite character and so well written. A joy to read.



We went to The George in Cranbrook. My choice and rather expensive. Sorry girls.



But the puddings were good.



They really were



Happy reading

The Accidental

The Accidental by Ali Smith



We have lost Debora at this point. Just as she is busy. Hopefully she will return at a future date.

I was not so keen on this book. As I was ill and couldn't make this meeting at The King William I don't know what the others thought. They can update with comments.

How could they have a meeting without me!!!
