Frances

Seeking a book club

I live part of the year in Robin Hood's Bay and part of the year in Sheffield. I read a lot, mainly contemporary fiction - I follow women's writing particularly and I like reading novels that challenge me as well as ones that are just entertaining! I'd love to join a book group in Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay or Scarborough.

I Have Some Questions for You  by Rebecca Makkai
I Have Some Questions for You
by Rebecca Makkai | Learn more and buy
It's a crime story as well as a high school story - it's funny but it's also a challenging read that has things to say about gender and #metoo. I was really gripped by it. It's long but I liked that about it!

Angelology

This book combines everything I love; puzzles, mysteries, adventure through the eyes of scholars known as Angelologists. The characters are well developed individuals, and the plot is engaging. It has been a favourite for many years.
