📣 1 of 2: Looking ahead to next month’s #CatChatBookClub, we’ll embrace our traditional “Non-Fiction-November” theme (not compulsory of course). I hope you’re happier about it than I look in the pic 😹 Biographies, true crime, history books, cookery books, craft/hobbies books…

hooray, one of the 2 libraries I belong to, has this as e-book-thanks! Sometimes I read serious novels but sometimes I want a quick thriller and sounds like this fits that! #catchatbookclub My own thriller recs are old- early Tess Gerritsen (the Surgeon); early Patricia Cornwell (Body Farm).

A third book which mum read & which fits the #CatChatBookClub theme is “The Hike” by Lucy Clarke. As a group of female friends go on a hiking trip in challenging terrain, tension and foreboding are in abundance! 🙀 A fast paced thriller altho not ‘outstanding’ in mum’s view.

As well as the “Fright”📕 mum also embraced the “Delight” aspect of our October #CatChatBookClub theme. Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club series has brought her lots of joy over recent years so she was keen to read the latest installment! It did not disappoint! Mum LOVED it 😁

The first book mum chose, for our October #CatChatBookClub theme, was The Small Hand by Susan Hill. Our dear friends @lisaclayton.bsky.social introduced us to this author a few years ago, so she’s our ‘go-to’ now for spooky stories that don’t completely traumatise us!🙀😹👻
We loved it!

My sister’s husband died almost 2 years ago and I read this to see if I thought it would help her.
Joan Didion is very honest in discussing her overwhelming grief over a year’s time in her husband’s sudden death.

Read this and really enjoyed. Written by a security officer at the Metropolitan Museum for 10 years. Lots of interesting observations. #CatChatBookClub

I thought the movie, The Prince of Tides, was better than the book. Usually I think books are better.
#CatChatBookClub
I also think books are often better than the movies. One exception for me was The Devil Wears Prada. I saw the movie first and thought the book would be even better. Ended up being disappointed and preferring the movie. Meryl Streep lifts up anything she is in. #CatChatBookClub

For the #CatChatBookClub “Books which became MOVIES” theme, Mum chose to read “Chocolat” by Joanne Harris, which she enjoyed just as much as a bar of 🍫 itself! 😹 The story was lovely & moving, the characters super. Magical. Good messages to take away from it. (1 of 3…. cont)
