The First Book

I am very excited to announce the first book we will be reading, the classic, Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote.

Now I have to admit this book has been sitting on my shelves for over a year now and I haven’t got around to reading it, so what better time than now. Normally when I read a book (as I’m sure we all do) I create a picture of the characters in my imagination, and although I have not seen the film version, it is going to be hard not to picture Audrey Hepburn while reading this.

At only 100 pages, it is not a very long book but I’m sure we will have lots to discuss and I’m sure in there somewhere there is a great recipe to be found. The discussion of the book will take place over at Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/749219-the-novel-cook

Ok so we have one month in which to read the book, feel free to join in at any point. I will be posting the food from the book on a different post during that month, link can be found here:  https://thenovelcook.wordpress.com/blog/      So stay tuned.

There is nothing else to say but … enjoy.

If you are going to be joining in with the book club, don’t feel like you have to go out and buy the books we will be reading, there are a few other options; try your local library, ask family and friends if they have the book – better yet get them involved and pass along the books with each other, charity shops and second-hand book shops are great and of course the internet is a great place to find bargains.
