The Outcast

Thanks for the mini reviews, Laura. Would you recommend The Winter Vault overall?

I thought I would mention a book called The Outcast by Sadie Jones which was riveting; I read it in 2 days and could hardly put it down. It is definitely dark and disturbing but so well-written and compelling. It has been compared to Atonement by Ian McEwan and I would agree. Difficult to believe it is a first novel...

Also read a gift book about a remarkable library cat called Dewey; probably not a book club candidate but a good story and may appeal to you cat lovers out there!
