Welcome to the Globe Bookgroup blog! Here, members of the group can post messages about past and present books, and catch up with other members. The Globe Bookgroup meets around every 4-5 weeks on a Thursday night in The Globe pub, Baker Street. We get very excited about choosing and voting for our books. We don't do organised discussions or heavy hardbacks.

Next book...

Hi,

I've managed to mislay Nancy's short list...anyway, the winner this month was: Hunting Unicorns by Bella Pollen.

I'm now reading 'A Very Long Engagement', once featured on Lorraine's booklist some months ago. Having seen the film, the mystery is not as strong as it would've otherwise been, but it's good to get into the story which I remember being quite complex. If you haven't seen the film, it's all about a woman trying to find out what happened to her lover, a soldier in the 1st World War.

Anyway, enjoy the unicorns...See you in Dec...

Hi Ellie,

I've got the Bella Pollen from Amazon Marketplace. Am still reading London Orbital by Iain Sinclair. I picked up some cheap copies of The Bridge by Ian Banks and Sunday at the Pool in Kigali by Courtemanche in a nice little bookshop in Leather Lane, Clerkenwell. There's a little market there as well. Also a not so nice cafe where we had to leave because we only wanted a coffee and they had a silly minimum charge arrangement

all the best
Julian
