Our second read is Cilka's Journey by Heather Morris.
Our Book Club group met for a festive brunch and few took advantage of the special offer on a glass of fizz! Which causes the question, with infinite choices what is the best way to live? There she is given the chance to undo her regrets and try out each of the other lives she might have lived. Then at the stroke of midnight on her last day on earth she finds herself transported to a library. The synopsis is as follows: Nora's life has been going from bad to worse. Our second book is a very different, book for this month - and it might be termed a "quick read" with just 288 pages. However everyone's journey is unique with its own challenges. This plot is similar to that of American Dirt, for those members who have read it. However, the terrible things which Afra has seen have caused her to go blind and they embark on a perilous journey through Turkey and Greece towards an uncertain future in Britain. They live happily in the beautiful Syrian city of Aleppo - until the unthinkable happens and they are forced to flee. Nuri is a beekeeper and his wife, Afra, an artist. So two books again this month, the first is the Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri.
