July book club - held on 25 July

We met a Vicky's on 25th July and discussed Pure by Andrew Miller.

We had a lovely supper but as it's now been so long since then, I can't actually remember what we had to eat.  If I'd been a more efficient blogger, I'd have done it at the time and it would be here for all to see.  And for eternity. Presumably.

Most of us liked this book, Rosie had even finished it before everyone and she calls herself a slow reader.  People liked the theme which was about the removal of the bones from the old graveyard from Les Halles to the catacombs in Paris.  It had special resonance for Louise who'd recently been to Paris and possibly the catacombs.  Apparently events in the book lead up to the revolution but I can't comment on this because I haven't finished it yet.. and probably won't as I didn't really enjoy it.

Free read in the summer.
