NHFT virtual book club - our next read is The Midnight Library

Following on from our reading of The New Wilderness by  Diane Cook, our next novel for the NHFT virtual book club will be The Midnight Library by Matt Haig.

"Between life and death there is a library, and within that library, the shelves go on forever. Every book provides a chance to try another life you could have lived. To see how things would be if you had made other choices . . . Would you have done anything different, if you had the chance to undo your regrets?"

Our book club a very informal, with lively conversation, lots of laughs and doesn't always stay on topic. 

The next meeting will be Thursday the 22nd of April at 7pm via MS Teams where we will be discussing the novel. You can find the link via the Events Calendar on the Staff Room.

Hope to see you there.
