The Librarything Virago group have been reading the novels of Elizabeth Taylor during 2012 – in recognition of her centenary the project was started by Laura it has proved to be a wonderful celebration. Each month a different blogger has hosted that month’s read on their blog. Everyone has done such a marvellous job; I have felt a bit nervous when it came to my turn. I was unsure about how to approach this month’s discussions – and never have done anything like this before. Below is my suggested schedule (subject to change).

So if you would like to join in and don’t yet have a copy of the book (and live in Europe) come back later today – as I will be doing a giveaway of the book.
