bubble_she Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 This is such a shame, I would have loved to come to this but wednesday is the only day I can't do. Is it always Wednesdays that you meet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globetrotter Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Hi! Just to let you know that I'll be coming to our meeting on the 17/2. (I'd better since I chose the book!) I'm sorry I missed the January meet. I really liked the book and it was nice to read something that was set in Sweden, but the translation annoyed me at times. See you next Wednesday!

pb63 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I abandoned the Land of Green Plums after 110 pages. Life being too short and all that. Still think I have read enough to give a view. Be good to see you GT, I suspect we will have a mini discussion of Let the Right One In (which will be Maels' and my third discussion of that one!)

Maels Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I've got about 150 pages to go, so the odds are I won't get anywhere near finishing it, but I'll be there tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Blanco Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Hi Readers, I really enjoyed last night's meeting, even though the book was slated. Personally, I'm prepared to give it a second chance. Next month, in a break from the norm, we are meeting on a Thursday. So, on Thursday 25th March we will be discussing 'Superfreakonomics' by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner. The book for April will be 'Night Train to Lisbon' by Pascal Mercier - the phenomenal international bestseller, described as "a treat for the mind". ps Newcomers are always very welcome and no English Lit degree is required.

M E Bowes Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Hi, I'm new to Sheffield and am interested in attending March's meeting. I've gathered from the above post that it's being held on Thursday 25th March (at the Red lion of course), but would anyone be able to tell me at what time? I've seen 7:30 pm on a couple of posts for previous meetings; is that the standard time for all meetings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pb63 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Yes 7.30. We will have a copy of the book on display so we are easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipp Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Hi, I would like to come along on the 25th if you have space for another newby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Blanco Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Hi Pipp and M E Bowes, It will be good to have a few new faces at the meetings. Our core group has dwindled to about 4 recently so there is plenty of space for newcomers. According to GlobeTrotter we once had 18 members turn up, but she had quite a lot of wine that evening and may have counted everyone twice! Also if you have any opinions on some of our previous books, or suggestions for the future, then please feel free to share them at the meeting.
