Hello, everyone!

Our November book "Hemlock and Silver" by T. Kingfisher.

Here is what Goodreads has to say about the book:

From New York Times bestselling and Hugo Award-winning author T. Kingfisher comes Hemlock & Silver, a dark reimagining of “Snow White” steeped in poison, intrigue, and treason of the most magical kind.

Healer Anja regularly drinks poison.

Not to die, but to save—seeking cures for those everyone else has given up on.

But a summons from the King interrupts her quiet, herb-obsessed life. His daughter, Snow, is dying, and he hopes Anja’s unorthodox methods can save her.

Aided by a taciturn guard, a narcissistic cat, and a passion for the scientific method, Anja rushes to treat Snow, but nothing seems to work. That is, until she finds a secret world, hidden inside a magic mirror. This dark realm may hold the key to what is making Snow sick.

Or it might be the thing that kills them all.

We are using Jitsi to meet online, we'll post the link shortly before the event.

We are a warm and welcoming group, so I hope both old-timers and newcomers can join us for this online meeting! We usually have a lot of fun... and it sometimes happens that we stray from the topic ;-)
See you!

FOR THE EAGER: For the meetup after that, we'll read "The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi" by S.A. Chakraborty. You are welcome to read ahead if you want :-)))
