Anyone started the new Kate Atkinson book yet?

[Sallystyle]

I am very tempted to buy it even if it is £7 on kindle.

Just collected my library copy (which, very unusually for a library book, is signed). Looking forward to reading it in a couple of weeks, after I've read Life After Life.

anyone finished it yet? i just have and need to talk about the twist!

Bought it yesterday from Audible. Planning to make a start today

firefly78 - yes, I want to talk about the twist too but we would have to find a private thread to which no-one else is admitted! Perhaps we could have a thread and mark it SPOILERS?

Not me!
I read LAL and it was so arduous that I really need a bread from her before I can read this one!
Not to say that I didn't like it, it was okay but found it tedious in places and very slow going. Overall I enjoyed it though.
None of my book club liked it!

yes good idea!

Have just borrowed from my local library Loved Life after Life (I like all her novels) and looking forward to it .
Away with 4 friends for two days-my own hotel room so can read in bed til late into the night !

I'm half-way through and enjoying it much more than Life After Life, which I had mixed feelings about. Also seeing myself in Viola to some extent, like Mini.

Have literally just finished it and feeling a bit emotional! Think I need some time to digest and get my head around it (I felt the same after Life After Life too). I thought it was amazing, brilliant characters and some big themes, but that twist!

I loved it too.

Anyone know if KA has written another book?

Yes, she's written quite a few:

Wish I had the day off tomorrow to finish this.

Ooh you lucky thing Bacon, all those lovely Kate Atkinson books to discover!

What I meant was has she written a new one after God In Ruins!

I've read all her others. Except the book of short stories, must look that up!

No, A God of Ruins was only published two months ago.

I finished it today. It's a terrific book.
