The 1938 Club

I'm so glad that Simon from Stuck In A Book & Karen from Kaggsy's Bookish Rambles enjoyed organising the 1924 Club because they've now decided to host another week focussing on another year - 1938.
I've read quite a lot of books published that year, mostly pre-blog. Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier, Three Guineas by Virginia Woolf, The Buccaneers by Edith Wharton, Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day by Winifred Watson, Appointment with Death & Hercule Poirot's Christmas by Agatha Christie, Artists in Crime & Death in a White Tie by Ngaio Marsh, The Fashion in Shrouds by Margery Allingham, Nightingale Wood by Stella Gibbons, The Sword in the Stone by T H White, Miss Bun, the Baker's Daughter by D E Stevenson, The Citadel by A J Cronin. I enjoyed them all & maybe, if you'd like to join the Club, you might find some ideas from that list on what to read.

I do have a few reviews on the blog for 1938 books & I'll re-post those reviews during the week of the Club, which is from April 11th-17th.

I also have this little pile from the tbr shelves which all look very tempting. Will I finally read another Angela Thirkell? If the new reprint of Howard Spring's My Son, My Son, is released early (it's due to be published on April 7th), I may be able to read that as I've preordered it. I'll keep trawling the shelves & see if anything else jumps out at me. I should also check my eBooks. I know I have National Provincial by Lettice Cooper, Four-part Setting by Ann Bridge & Knock, Murderer, Knock! by Harriet Rutland & there may be others.

It sounds like a lot of fun. I enjoyed reading the reviews from the 1924 Club & I'm sure I'll find books I want to read this time around as well. I have a month to get organized & make a decision - I can't possible dither for too much longer, can I?
