Welcome back to Eagle Vale Book Club members for 2011, we hope that everyone had an enjoyable Christmas and New Year filled with lots and lots of reading. Our next meeting will be Tuesday 22nd February and we will be discussing 'The Year of the Flood" by Margaret Atwood, (purely coincidental, as this title was chosen last year).


We look forward to seeing you then,

Regards, Jenny and Wendy

Hi All!

If you are after any info about authors or titles please follow the link below.
Novelist is a website that has all the information you will need about a book or author.
It has book reviews, who writes like who suggestions, author, title and series recommendations, reading lists and a huge amount of other information you would need to find a good book.
Please be aware this is an American site so the depth of the Australian content isn't huge but it still is a great site for all your reading needs.

Cheers

In the new year there will be no January meeting for either group, we will be restarting on the 23rd February 2011.
