GIVEAWAY: 3 copies of When Will There Be Good News by Kate Atkinson
December 9th, 2009
Another great giveaway – 3 copies of When Will There Be Good News by Kate Atkinson courtesy of Valerie at Hachette Book Group. I hope to be reading this one soon as it’s been on my wishlist for quite a while.
Here’s a bit about the book:
On a hot summer day, Joanna Mason’s family slowly wanders home along a country lane. A moment later, Joanna’s life is changed forever…
On a dark night thirty years later, ex-detective Jackson Brodie finds himself on a train that is both crowded and late. Lost in his thoughts, he suddenly hears a shocking sound…
At the end of a long day, 16-year-old Reggie is looking forward to watching a little TV. Then a terrifying noise shatters her peaceful evening. Luckily, Reggie makes it a point to be prepared for an emergency…
These three lives come together in unexpected and deeply thrilling ways in the latest novel from Kate Atkinson, the critically acclaimed author who Harlan Coben calls “an absolute must-read.”
Listen to an excerpt here.
Visit Kate Atkinson’s website here.
When Will There Be Good News would make a terrific book club selection. It sounds like there is a lot for your group to discuss and Hachette has kindly supplied a Reading Group Guide which you can find here on the Book Blogs site as an attached word file. I always love to have these guides as they always give questions that get your group into some really good discussions. I can’t wait to give this a read and maybe suggest it to my book club for a future selection.
