End of the World Running Club is a good book - I've read it a couple of times. I don't much rate The Survivors' Club though, or The Last Dog on Earth. (Yes, there's a theme running through a lot of my books I'm afraid.) OK, so my list is a mix of re-reads and new (to me) books: The Mirror and the Light - Hilary Mantel Poisonwood Bible - Barbara Kingsolver Things Fall Apart - Chinua Achebe If Nobody Speaks of Remarkable Things - Jon McGregor American Dirt - Jeanine Cummins |

Is 'End of the World Runnign Club' a decent read, It was bought for me as a present, seemed to be a bit of a daft premise, I have had it for over a year, I might have to give it a go!

Someone was talking about that the other day... I think it might have been Linds. Bear with...

It was Linds, on the main Book Group thread, on this page: fetcheveryone.com/forum__56655__1663__book_group |

Well, well if Linds says it is worth a read, I shall read it.

Hello. Just going to list mine - most of them are physical books, just too faffy to photograph them just now. Dave Eggers - The Circle George Dyson - Turing’s Cathedral CJ Sansom - Tombland Richard Thomas - Why Dylan Matters Iain Banks - The Quarry Iain M Banks - The Hydrogen Sonata I have been sitting on the last two for ages. After I’ve read them, there will be no new Banks ever again. But I can’t put them off for ever. |

Can't believe you still have Banks. And WS, I'm not sure I said EotWRC was worth a read. It has stayed with me, though |

Was EotWRC a book group book, way back? I seem to remember reading it at the same time as lots of people on here |
