RE: Joanne Harris
Gentlemen and Players is well worth a read, Sue. I enjoyed it immensely, as did quite a few people here if I recall correctly.

RE: Joanne Harris
I have read and enjoyed quite a few of Joanne Harris' books. I had a period when I read a lot of books that in some respect were about food. Chocolat was one of them, but I must say that I liked both Blackberry Wine and Five Quarters of the Orange better than I liked Chocolat. But I would say that all those books are very similar to one another. My all time favourite by Joanne Harris is Gentlemen and Players, I think that's because I had a lot of surprises when I read that book. Sometimes when you read a book you know the "formula" of that type of book, and you can make pretty good guesses about what's going to happen. It doesn't mean that those books are bad- but it does make those books stand out when you are surprised.

I have 'Chocolat' on my TBR pile and my friend just bought me a copy of 'The Evil Seed', which I am looking forward to reading

RE: Joanne Harris
I really enjoyed Blackberry Wine and Five quarters of the orange. Haven`t read any other books by Joanne Harris, other than Chocolat.

RE: Joanne Harris
Chocolat is my favourite and Blackberry Wine a second. Must get around to reading the others I have on my shelf.

RE: Joanne Harris
Hi all, thanks for your replies and coments. I shall certainly look at Gentlemen and Players. As I had already got copies of Chocolat and Blackberry Wine (why do these books always seem to be in Charity Shops?) I shall start with them. I certainly loved the film of Chocolat although I believe they made some pertinent changes.
Thanks. |

I loved Evil Seed and Sleep Pale Sister . I read Evil Seed a few years ago but haven't yet read the reprinted version.

Maureen said:I have just started on lollipop shoes. Never knew this book existed, actually. Was discussing JH with a friend of mine and she mentioned it - and then lent me the book. It looks as if it is going to be an enjoyable read.
