Am I still the only blogger

The Orange prize was won by one of my favourite authors Rose Tremain for The Road Home which is a great book and I would recommend it both as a personal read and perhaps for the reading group once there are copies in the library system. Has anyone else read this one yet?

some suggestions for reading

Dear All
I have recently completed an Open University course called Approaching Literature and thought the rest of you might like to see the raeding list as it was an eclectic but interesting choice

Pride and Prejudice Jane Austen
Great Expectataions Charles Dickens
Fathers and Sons Turgenev
Frankenstein Mary Shelley

Romantic poems Byron, Blake Shelley Keats etc as well as some more obscure ones

The Color Purple Alice Walker
Other gender related writing by Virginia Woolf, Charlotte Perkins Gilman and others

A Doll's House Henrik Ibsen

The Rover Aphra Behn
Henry V, Othello and As you Like it Williams Shakespeare

So as you an see I have not had much time for other reading in the last few months. It might be interesting to include one of these books on our list and I would e interested to hear other people's views and preferences, favourites etc
See you all on Wednesday
