Flora sets about tidying their chaotic lives & steering everyone toward happier & more sensible futures. It’s a satire of the rural melodramas popular in the 1920s and ’30s. Mum didn’t expect to like it but it was witty & made her laugh at times! #CatChatBookClub

📣 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…

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.

We did! We enjoyed it too but lots of the detail from the book was missing eg all Joyce’s funny comments about instagram 😹 #Catchatbookclub

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!

For comparison, we also watched the film of “Chocolat” 🎥 which is based on the book #CatChatBookClub
Mum did enjoy the film; v pleasant viewing but although many elements of the written story were included, they were significantly altered & in different order 🙀 (2 of 3…cont)

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)

Mum isn’t usually a ‘Summer Escapes’ kind of reader 😹 but with “Love Forms” by Claire Adam, we travelled between London & Trinidad & Tobago. Mum adored this book. It’s definitely not a light beach read but it’s contemplative & moving & highly recommended #CatChatBookClub
