Great/ Thanks for your support.

May I suggest a book to kick off. its by JUSTIN CARTWRIGHT AND THE BOOK IS
'Half in Love' set in the time of Tony Blair's govt. it gives a really good insight into spin doctors but also a moving love story.

A Relutant Fundamentalist' by Mohsin Hamid the effect that 9/11 had on a Pakistani living the good life in NY. Very clever writing as it is written in two voices and also a thriller f sorts!

Default Shall I create a new forum section for the books club?

Delphina - what a great idea! Shall I add a new area so you can always find it easily? I can move the current posts there too?

Sorry I have been a little quiet - had a little boy on Tuesday so been a little hectic!

That would be a good idea, at the moment there was a response but not much input but always hopeful
