The Ventnor Library reading group meet on a regular basis to discuss their book of the month.
The most recent was Kate Mosse’s Sepulchre. Here’s what members of the group thought. If you’ve read it too, why not leave your comment at the bottom.
“..Brilliant! I thought it was a really good read and will try Labyrinthe..”
“..I was irritated by the two time sequences – it would have been better to keep it simple and just tell the 19th century story, the modern element was weaker, and Meredith’s story seemed contrived..”.
“..very drawn out”¦.a bit formulaic with its parallel stories..”
“.. chicklit with A levels..”
“.. a load of fluff but enjoyable if cliche..”
“.. once you suspend disbelief an enjoyable story “¦..”
“.. does evil transfer from generation to generation?…..
“..bad sex description!…why is so much writing about sex so un-erotic?..”
“.. very descriptive”¦ the minor characters and historical background were interesting “¦I’d have liked more of the mother’s story”¦”
“..was the American character introduced for the American audience?..”
“.. lovely descriptions of the settings”¦”
