It's my turn at Book Club to choose our reading for the next month. We are looking for something fairly light, amusing, funny even... and it has to be well written.

We are all Mums in our thirties/forties and lead busy lives, some of us work outside the home and some of us at SAHM.

Could anyone recommend a book that might suit, which is available in electronic and paper versions? Many thanks!

Decline and Fall is all of those things.

Thanks contortionist! Who is the author?

Sorry - duh, I realise it is Evelyn Waugh. How about something contemporary?

The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion. It's very funny.
