Bookclub: The winning book for July is....

To the Grave by Steve Robinson. It came in as the clear winner - congratulations to you, Steve. Clapping hands

The discussion thread will open on 14 July, so get reading if you haven't already. Looking forward to the discussions. Smile

Thanks very much for all your votes. I think To the Grave really lends itself to discussion and I've been itching to chat openly about it since it was launched earlier in the month. I'm really looking forward to the discussion. Smile

Steve: Is there any "spoilage" if I read this one first?

Hi JS. In the Blood and To the Grave can be read in any order as in you don't need prior knowledge of one to read the other, but it would be best to read In the Blood first. They do follow a timeline with the main character but it's not relevant to anything. There is one little matter that's answered in To the Grave, but it's of no real consequence. If you plan to read In the Blood at some point you would however know how something in the story turns out, but I wouldn't say it really matters.

If anyone wants to read In the Blood: A Genealogical Crime Mystery #1 before reading To the Grave, I thought you'd like to know that I've just reduced the price to 77p until the end of the month. Smile

Why do I keep forgetting to check what happens in the bookclub??? (Because I´m senile, that´s why). Screwloose

But now I´ve ´already´ bought "In the blood" so I can rush through that one - and move on to the second if I like what I get. So perhaps I´ll get there before it´s too late (for the book club - I suppose it´s never too late from Steve´s point of view) Whistle
