A book club - with a difference.

Lotus

Someone asked today if there is a book club, so I thought I'd try starting one. Not the usual type of club where everyone reads the same book - I thought we could write a synopsis of a book we've recently read, to give each other ideas for new books to read.

I have a Kindle subscription, so all of mine will be available on there for people who also subscribe.

  • I just read 'The Mad Wife' by Meagan Church. It's about 1960s suburban life in America from the point of view of a housewife. It was interesting to learn about women's mental health was treated in those days when it was considered to be 'housewife syndrome' or hysteria. Also made me wonder about how much further we've got with the treatment of mental health.
