Fingersmith by Sarah Waters
Details
Hello, Litbugs!
For October we're reading "Fingersmith" by Sarah Waters.
We are meeting in person at a Downtown Vancouver cafe. Once the final attendees are confirmed, the location will be messaged to you via Meetup messages the day before.
Here's the description of the book from Good Reads:
Sue Trinder is an orphan, left as an infant in the care of Mrs. Sucksby, a "baby farmer," who raised her with unusual tenderness, as if Sue were her own. Mrs. Sucksby’s household, with its fussy babies calmed with doses of gin, also hosts a transient family of petty thieves—fingersmiths—for whom this house in the heart of a mean London slum is home.
Happy Reading!
