Lizzie - Classic Book Club

Welcome to Classic Book Club

Hello! I am Lizzie, and my main joy in life is reading books and thinking about books! I have so many thoughts about each book I read so wanted a place to record these thoughts, and a place where others who are reading the same book as me can share their thoughts about it too. I’ve tried to write my (often lengthy!) reviews of books so it feels like I am chatting with you as we read the book together, comparing thoughts at the end of a chapter and ideas of where the plot and characters may end up, wondering why the author has written a character or scene in a particular way and what they may be subtly trying to tell us about that character or scene. So enjoy reading along with me, and please get in touch, I’d love to be able to discover more about a favourite book from your thoughts on it.

The Appeal by Janice Hallett

Featured Book Review

Janice Hallett
The Appeal

Oooh, I am very very excited to read this after enjoying The Twyford Code so much, but then bizarrely I'm almost reluctant to start it as I anticipate getting completely obsessed with it and it taking all my attention and focus and normal life stopping, just as when I read The Twyford Code! I love how Hallett doesn’t have a detective in her books so she is then encouraging the reader to solve the crime/puzzle. Obviously I always try to solve the crime/puzzle in detective books, but in Hallett’s books it really feels like it’s up to me (!) and this is why I got so obsessed with The Twyford Code and anticipate getting similarly obsessed with The Appeal also.
