What is the December book ?

You're probably right there. And I don't want to appear ungrateful at all (so don't strike me off the list, GNHQ!) - I'm always thrilled when that book drops through the letterbox, however late in the month it is.

Think it's the publishers rather than GNHQ though because they seem to come directly from the publishers ..... eventually. grin

All the monthly books seem to be delivered very late now. Perhaps GNHQ should miss a month and get it back on track. It's not always easy to read a book and comment by the end of the month when you've only had it a few days.

Not me. Looks like it'll be the December book.....

Anyone received a copy yet?

cazthebookworm Fri 11-Nov-16 17:15:24

I've applied, really hope I get this one smile

Ah yes. Thanks Pittcity, I've found them both now.?

Bella at the top of this page right under the Gransnet logo is a green strip that starts "Forums". Fourth along is "Books", click on that and Book club details are on that page.
Gransnet send an email newsletter daily if you have opted to receive it. That would be in your Preferences, the link for which is on the far right column at the bottom of this page.

Bellanonna Fri 11-Nov-16 09:16:27

Pittcity - I can't see the link. And what newsletter? Sorry if I'm being thick.

Pittcity Fri 11-Nov-16 08:22:09

LadyG you enter when you like the look of the book and are able to read and comment in the specified time frame.

Jalima Thu 10-Nov-16 19:46:57

thank you Pittcity smile

now I just have to remember to look out for it

LadyGracie Thu 10-Nov-16 19:40:10

Do you have to enter every month?

Pittcity Thu 10-Nov-16 15:19:48

You are too late for this one, but there is a link under the books tab above for you to apply in the month before. December's will be announced soon and will be in the newsletter.
PS. Has anyone received this one?

jollyg Thu 10-Nov-16 14:37:05

Jalima I too looked for that info but failed.

Jalima Thu 10-Nov-16 14:11:52

How do I enter to win a copy please?

Our November book club choice is Cartes Postales from Greece by Victoria Hislop (read more about it HERE).

Winners should be receiving their copies in the next few days. Don't forget that if you do receive one, please leave your thoughts, reviews and questions for Victoria on this thread by the end of November.

Happy reading!
