Has anyone received this month's book yet? It seems a bit late to do a review by the end of the month if not!

It's here! Thank you GN. I'm looking forward to starting on it.

Miriam Mon 02-Oct-17 17:04:48

Received the September book this morning - thank you, so will be starting to read it this evening and will get back with comments etc asap.

BBbevan Mon 02-Oct-17 15:03:00

Postie just delivered mine. Thanks GN. Better get reading now.

Mapleleaf Mon 02-Oct-17 14:46:39

Glad they are arriving for people.

Just got home to a surprise package. Thought it might be October book as I'd given up on September. Better get off GN and get reading.

Greyduster Mon 02-Oct-17 11:36:09

Oh my goodness! It has arrived! Mines postmarked 29th Sept too. Thank you Gransnet. Hope we're going to have sufficient time to read it now.

Yay, mine's here too! Put that book of short stories down, Greyduster, it looks as though yours will be arriving very shortly....

gillyknits Mon 02-Oct-17 11:18:37

Hurray, mine arrived this morning. Better get started. Any one any idea when the reviews are needed?

Buddie Mon 02-Oct-17 10:40:12

Meant to say it is postmarked 29th September.

Buddie Mon 02-Oct-17 10:38:54

Postman has just delivered - the September Book Club book. Does this mean we have until the end of October to read and comment?

Greyduster Mon 02-Oct-17 09:28:40

Er, no.... But in desperation to have something to read, I have started a book of short stories from the library!

BBbevan Mon 02-Oct-17 07:20:23

Does anyone think we will get the book?

Mapleleaf Sat 30-Sept-17 15:25:07

Perhaps, as someone said earlier, it's a virtual reality September book club. ?

BBbevan Sat 30-Sept-17 13:00:36

Here too.

Pittcity Sat 30-Sept-17 10:57:24

Last day of September and the postman has just walked past ?

BBbevan Fri 29-Sept-17 12:38:51

You might have to wait a long time for it though rascal , if this month is anything to go by.

rascal Fri 29-Sept-17 08:42:11

Oh right harrigran thank you. That's what to do, I've to look out for when they advertise the next book club draw. I have never noticed that before. hmmflowers

harrigran Fri 29-Sept-17 08:09:00

rascal just fill out the form when they advertise the next month's book and you will go into the draw with all the others.

rascal Fri 29-Sept-17 06:53:49

How do I join the book club please? I would like to be considered to be included in receiving a book. If I was chosen sometime it would be great. smile

BBbevan Fri 29-Sept-17 05:13:10

Well only two more days. The excitement is underwhelming

Mapleleaf Thu 28-Sept-17 08:43:29

All very strange.

Gagagran Thu 28-Sept-17 08:25:08

Well GNs I think we can safely say that the September Book is not going to appear - not in September anyway! First time this has happened in all the years of the Book Club but it would be worth knowing for sure if we should stop watching for the postman! confused

BBbevan Wed 27-Sept-17 14:55:15

If they went out on the 22nd, five days ago, where might they be?

Greyduster Wed 27-Sept-17 10:32:05

Sorry! I think all that fresh air yesterday went to my head a bit! ?

Greyduster Wed 27-Sept-17 10:31:11

Did anyone else think the part where she dangled him out of a helicopter by his legs and threatened to drop him unless he increased her dress allowance stretched credibility a bit? ?
