Thank you so much for all your 1962 Club reviews! What a fun year it has been, and with such variety. I only managed to read three books, but I got a lot out of them, with the bonus that two of them had been on my shelves for a very long time. I’ll keep updating the reviews page, so hopefully won’t miss any that you’d told me about. And glad that we got most of our usuals – Georgette Heyer, Agatha Christie, Georges Simenon – though we seem to have picked one of the very few years where P.G. Wodehouse didn’t have anything new published.
Of course, as ever, we are thinking six months ahead for the next club year – drum roll – see you in April for the 1937 Club!
It’s been great Simon, thanks so much to you and Kaggsy for hosting. I’m already excited about the 1937 Club too!
I always enjoy seeing the selections & reading the Club year reviews; hopefully I’ll be organized enough to participate for Year 1937!
I really enjoyed reading my two books, esp the unexpected joy of the children’s book I read, was just disappointed I didn’t finish the Kynaston book – but am enjoying it still. 1937 will be a super year I’m sure!
Thank you for hosting, Simon. Enjoyed joining in, and looking forward to 1937!
Can you give me a little more information about how this works. I get emails from you but I don’t have a website. So does that mean I’m not eligible to leave reviews?
Everyone is welcome! If you don’t have a website, you can put a review on GoodReads or social media or in the comments on the 1937 Club blog post next April
I’ve loved reading all of the 1962 reviews and can’t wait for 1937. It looks like being a bumper year for detective fiction!
1937 looks to be a very strong year in literature. I’ve even read a few which is a first for me with your club reads!
I’m always looking forward to this announcement!
According to my Goodreads shelves, I have read 5 books published in 1937, and 5 are on my TBR! This promises to be a good year
I always love these clubs and after just a quick scan through my bookshelves realise I have lots of excellent choices for 1937. Thanks again for hosting the 1962 club!
Brilliant. Looking forward to the next club. 1962 was such a good one. Thanks for all you do.
Belatedly saying yay to this, and wasn’t 1962 great – such a wonderful year for books!
