February book club - This Is How It Always Is

About half way through and I am struggling rather with this book. I find my mind glazing over occasionally as time jumped quickly and the bedtime stories bored me. I will carry on though as I want to know how it pans out for the child.

A long bus journey yesterday means I have read February 's book already! Beautifully presented makes it intriguing before you even open the cover. Hard to start with as you are in the story straight away, but then you are swept into the middle of the Walsh-Adams family. There are funny parts, but heart breaking moments too. A topic very much in the public domain just now and this helps to reveal some of the issues. My question for Laurie is "How does your daughter feel about the book?"

My book arrived today, many thanks.

Mine arrived this morning. Many thanks, Gransnet.

Picked my copy up from the post office this morning.It was in such a big box that it would not go through the letter box.Looking forward to reading about what is very interesting subject matter.

What a beautiful looking book! My was on the doorstep today; review to follow when I have read it. Thank you

I collected my copy from our post office this morning.

I have one chapter of my current book left so the timing has been perfect for me. I can't wait to begin reading this book with its interesting (and probably challenging) topic and will be very happy to provide a critique.

Thank you Gransnet HQ!

I have started reading my copy. Different to say the least.

Mine arrived yesterday, and I'll look forward to starting it. First comment - what an unusual cover!

Mine arrived this morning! Thank you! I have a borrowed book to finish so I'm rushing through it. I have to be strict with myself or I end up with several books on the go at once and get all confused!

I received a copy too. Thank you Gransnet!

Very busy postmen today as mine also arrived. Thank you.

Thank you very much for my copy, which has just arrived. I'm looking forward to reading it - as soon as I can finish Wolf Hall!

My copy arrived this morning too - thank you GN. It is such a treat to have a new book ready to start.

It has arrived today at a very opportune time. I've just finished reading Michael Connelly's latest Harry Bosch crime novel, one of his best.
