Is there a book for December? I haven't seen it advertised but I may have missed it.

I've seen nothing. And despite the thread I started asking whether there was a November book:

only one person has posted about it, last week!

What's going on, GNHQ? confused

I've asked GNHQ to look into it now.

I hope the author of November's offering isn't looking on here wondering why nobody cares about her book! smile

I have long since thought that very few books have been sent out. I once asked if there was a "punishment " for those who did not review the book but my question was ignored.

Just to say we don't run book club in December - the festive season rather gets in the way grin so instead we have our best reads for Christmas and the chance to win a whopping £800 of amazing books.

However, midway through December we will be previewing our January book club, so definitely watch out for that

But what happened to November’s book, Cari, that wasn’t advertised in the Books forum and only two people have mentioned getting? confused

GNHQ have replied to my email as follows:

Ah there was a technical problem which meant one publisher sent out the books late - and it's had a slight knock on effect - but we have run Oct and nov as usual and all winners have been sent books, albeit slightly later than hoped.

So it looks as though there will be some November book club reviews shortly.
