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.

Painted Veil

Yay, have finished the book (too soon!) and would read it again. I am now picking books for the next months choice.

This month's book

Lorraine supplied us with a shortlist this month and got votes for all her choices:

The Painted Veil: Somerset Maugham
Runaway: Alice Monroe
Keep the Aspidistra Flying: George Orwell
Digging to America: Anne Tyler

And the winner is:

The Painted Veil: Somerset Maugham

It's only 224 pages so no excuses. Read it and then go see the film.
