September always feels like a new season and the opportunity to kick start fresh ambitions and plans. With this in mind the Den present our 3 Bright Ideas for September inspired by the elements - Earth, Wind and Fire!


Earth - The Den gets down to earth with John Boyne’s latest novella and our Book of the Moment, 'Earth'  - tapping into the trappings of entitlement and fame.  

Wind
We blast away the cobwebs of history with our Missed Opportunity - a state of the nation novel, 'Bournville' set in a now famous chocolate village with the factory at its heart.

Fire
Fire means danger and where better to explore this than with our Wild Card - a murder mystery set in Cape Haven, California. Not an obvious choice for book clubs but if you enjoyed ‘Where the Crawdads Sing’ this could be a great wild card read (as recommended by a Den fan!).

Lots more coming in the months ahead. Do keep recommending your best of book club reads this year and novels that you have discovered over the summer and are eager to share!
