FJ
Seeking a book club
Hi, I am a local St Albans author and I've written a book called No Number Nine, which has been reviewed as "a touching yet realistic coming-of-age story involving bereavement, romance, friendship and the Olympics." If you would like to read it at your book club, I am happy to deliver copies locally and even join your group for a chat!
