From the back of the book
A glass of wine, a gossip and a good book: the reading group is born. Its members are as different as the books they read, but each woman has secret hopes and fears--for a new lover, a straying husband, an ailing mother, a tearaway teenager--and each woman finds laughter and support in the group's monthly meetings.

About the author
Elizabeth Noble studied English language and literature at St. Edmund Hall, Oxford University, before working in British publishing for several years. The Reading Group is her first novel. She lives in Guildford, Surrey, with her husband and two daughters.
