Borders Bookclub Book Review - Ghostwritten By David Mitchell

I would like to set the scene for you.
I am sat at home in my comfy settee, legs up on a stool with my laptop on my knee and my Meggy Moo is faithfully sat next to me licking me to death, not because she wants to be close to her alpha, but I just taste so damn good at the moment. I smell of yoghurt (tesco's finest no less). What am I babbling about?

Well I have just come back from a spa where I have had a luxurious body wrap and facial...If I don't cop tonight when I go out to celebrate my book signing at Waterstones then I don't know what else to do, except write "Available Totty This Way" on my forehead!

So I am meant to be reviewing Ghostwritten by David Mitchell, but I say go out to a book shop, buy it and read it yourself... It's dead good!

Actually this is not a book I would normally read, but I joined a book club at Borders in Manchester last week and that was what they were reading that month. Very cleverly intertwined short stories rather than a novel and my only bug bear was that I was really getting to know the characters and sympathise with them when the story ended and moved on to the next character. People at the book club marvelled at how he managed to write nine stories from nine peoples different view points, but all I will say is that if you have studied the Enneagram I would suspect it wouldn't be that difficult at all.

Going out and joining a book club is not something I would have thought of doing myself either, but two fellow NLP Master Practitioners on my course set me a task last month to join a bookclub and go to an event like a booksigning or something and I had to speak to at least two people! Apparantly I'm a bit of an antisocial hermit!

So I was very proud of myself, because I spoke to FOUR people that evening... That is of course if you count the guy who served me an extra large mug of tea in Starbucks and the Borders shop assistant who I asked where the bookclub met!

So my next task is to go to a book signing, now I was due to attend one next Thursday evening, but I have a Hot Stone Therapy Massage to do and business comes before pleasure, so as luck would have it Waterstones contacted me last week and asked if I would like to do a book signing for my novel Didikai Witch on April 19th. I said, "Cor Yeah!"
So you see Ann and Gilli I will HAVE to speak to lots of people then won't I! So There!

Mmmm I do smell good enough to eat!
