'The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society' by Mary Ann Shaffer

Novel Tea 'n Pages Book Club are excited because we are reading 'The
Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society' by Mary Ann Shaffer.

' "I wonder how the book got to Guernsey? Perhaps there is some secret sort of homing instinct in books that brings them to their perfect readers. How delightful if that were true ... That's what I love about reading: one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you on to another book, and another bit there will lead you on to a third book. It's geometrically progressive--all with no end in sight and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment." '

' "A moving tale of post-war friendship, love and books. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society is a captivating and completely irresistible novel of enormous depth and heart." '

Novel Tea 'n Pages Book Club is a newly formed group of book lovers coming together to meet for our own particular set of reasons. It will be interesting to read about 'The Guernsey Literary' book club, the reasons behind its birth, the differences and similarities to our own club.

The date for our next meeting to discuss this book is Wednesday evening, 2 June, 2010 from 7:30pm till 9:30pm.

We meet the first Wednesday of every month. We welcome new members.

Until then...
happy reading ~
