'A Light Between the Oceans' by M L Steadman
A boat washes up on the shore of a remote lighthouse keeper's island. It holds a dead man - and a crying baby.
The only two islanders, Tom and his wife Izzy, make a devastating decision to break the rules and follow their hearts...
‘A LIGHT BETWEEN THE OCEANS’ is currently being made into a film, due for release in 2016, so wonderful to read the book first.
You can read more about 'A Light Between The Oceans on an earlier post when the book was first released: Onchan Book Group
'A Man Called Ove' by Fredrik Backman
Ove is possibly the grumpiest man in Sweden. He drives a Saab - has no time for Volvo drivers, or people who can’t reverse trailers, and especially the neighbours who ousted him from being Chairman of The Resident’s Association.
But Ove does have a heart beneath that crusty exterior, and his poignant and moving story is told with flashes of dark humour.
So many positive comments from people borrowing and reading this book from the library, so looking forward to hearing what the group thinks tonight!
