Tuesday 01 March 2011 A thank you to all who attended this afternoon's book group where we discussed Jed Rubenfeld - The Interpretation of Murder. Good to see all 12 members at the meeting this month, some members had read or attempted to read the book previously. It was agreed by all that the murder and subsequent police investigation set in 1909 New York was a good read. But the introduction, or the padding out as some members said, of Freud and Jung was needless and made the book very hard going, several members commented less is more in the case of this book. This will be the read for the Thursday Group for May, so maybe some different points of view will be given. Overall 2 / 5 for last month's read. My apologies for not attending the last two months, due to a personal bereavement. Hope all have a good March, look forward to seeing those that can attend at the April meeting where we will be discussing Mary Ann Shaffer - The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.
