Download or read book The Richard & Judy Book Club Reader written by Dr Helen Cousins and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 2004, daytime television presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan launched their book club and sparked debate about the way people in Britain, from the general reader to publishers to the literati, thought about books and reading. The Richard & Judy Book Club Reader brings together historians of the book, literature scholars, and specialists in media and cultural studies to examine the effect of the club on reading practices and the publishing and promotion of books. Beginning with an analysis of the book club's history and its ongoing development in relation to other reading groups worldwide including Oprah's, the editors consider issues of book marketing and genre. Further chapters explore the effects of the mass-broadcast celebrity book club on society, literature and its marketing, and popular culture. Contributors ask how readers discuss books, judge value and make choices. The collection addresses questions of authorship, authority and canon in texts connected by theme or genre including the postcolonial exotic, disability and representations of the body, food books, and domesticity. In addition, book club author Andrew Smith shares his experiences in a fascinating interview.

Book Synopsis The Bordeaux Book Club by : Gillian Harvey
Download or read book The Bordeaux Book Club written by Gillian Harvey and published by Boldwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2024-03-15 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love books? The Bordeaux Book Club is seeking new members! When Leah and her husband moved to France, it was with the dream of becoming self-sufficient. But in truth, it’s not the ‘good life’ she’d imagined, as three hours of digging barely yield a single straggly carrot. Worse, her teenage daughter is acting up, and her husband seems to find every strange excuse under the hot French sun to disappear. So when her friend entreats her to join the new bookclub she’s forming, Leah decides it’s something she will do for herself. The chance to make new friends, to drink a few glasses of wine, and to escape into stories that take her miles away from the life she’d thought would be her own happy-ever-after. But the book club is a strange group of misfits. There’s prickly Grace, who lives alone and seems to know everybody and like no-one. Buttoned-up Monica, who says her husband is away and appears to be parenting her baby all alone. Handsome builder George, who has barely read a book before. And Alfie – who is a full two decades younger than everyone else, and is hiding a devastating secret... As the stories they read begin to bring the new friends closer together, Leah is about to discover that happy-ever-afters don’t always look how you expect them to... A gorgeously escapist read from the bestselling author of A Year at the French Farmhouse, perfect for fans of Veronica Henry, Jo Thomas and Fiona Valpy. Readers love The Bordeaux Book Club: ‘I inhaled this absolute joy of a book in two greedy sittings. Wonderful! Gillian Harvey never disappoints and I can’t recommend this escapist gem of novel highly enough.’ Nicola Gill, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘A really heartwarming and satisfying read – full of character and warmth, like a glass of red wine with friends on a French summer’s evening. Formidable!’ Nancy Peach, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Beautifully observed and exquisitely written. There’s such a range of emotions here and Gillian Harvey delivers them all with great depth.’ Ian Moore, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Wonderfully warm and enchanting, The Bordeaux Book Club immerses the reader in two tantalizing worlds: the book club that turns into something much more, and the dream of “let's-buy-a-farmhouse-in-France”... With empathy, insight, and humour, The Bordeaux Book Club will delight readers seeking their own escape and meaningful camaraderie over the joys of literature, laughter, and love.’ Natalie Jenner, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘A gorgeous heart-warming story about the importance of friends, whether old and new, in helping you through the twists and turns in life’s journey. An emotional but uplifting read.’ Jessica Redland, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Like a cold glass of Chablis on a hot summer’s day, this lovely bookish story will refresh and restore you with its quirky mix of characters and lush French setting.’ Beth Morrey, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘A wonderful, heartwarming story... This novel not only celebrates the timeless power of fiction, but explores themes of loneliness in all its forms, of friendship and self-acceptance... A joy to read, so evocative of the Bordeaux region and with each character painted vividly and sympathetically. A book to utterly immerse yourself in. I loved it!’ Louise Fein, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Gillian Harvey is my go-to author for uplifting and engrossing stories set in France. In The Bordeaux Book Club she is at the top of her game and this book is as delicious as the millefeuilles she so temptingly describes." Kirsten Hesketh, author ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Book Synopsis Scandal in a Digital Age by : Hinda Mandell
Download or read book Scandal in a Digital Age written by Hinda Mandell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-10 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the way today’s interconnected and digitized world--marked by social media, over-sharing, and blurred lines between public and private spheres--shapes the nature and fallout of scandal in a frenzied media environment. Today’s digitized world has erased the former distinction between the public and private self in the social sphere. Scandal in a Digital Age marries scholarly research on scandal with journalistic critique to explore how our Internet culture driven by (over)sharing and viral, visual content impacts the occurrence of scandal and its rapid spread online through retweets and reposts. No longer are examples of scandalous behavior “merely” reported in the news. Today, news consumers can see the visual evidence of salacious behavior whether through an illicit tweet or video with a simple click. And we can’t help but click.

Tessa Simmons has just taken a job as the Assistant Director at the library in the cove, and she’s been charged with all of the adult programming. Her ideas are big, and she brings in her new friends for focus groups to truly expand the reach of literature in the cove. Robin and AJ have ideas and plenty of opinions, as do all of the other women. They don’t always line up, and some voices are louder than others. But as Eloise has taken a step back to spend more time with her family, she becomes instrumental in helping Tessa establish smaller library branches on all five islands in the cove. Kelli is busy with her yoga studio and her job as a new mother, but she also brings the idea of more books and better literature to both Pearl and Bell Island. Jean suggests a “lighthouse little library,” and Tessa takes in all the ideas, trying to find the right things that will reach everyone from 18 to 80. Robin’s daughter and Alice then come up with a brilliant idea to unite generations throughout the cove: a bicycle book club. Maddy, Julia, and Clara quickly jump on the idea, and it takes shape like nothing else has. Then Tessa decides to look into the past to help shape the future, what she finds in the Five Island Cove library archives could bring them closer together…or splinter them forever. Escape to the beach this summer with your new best friends! Join the women in Five Island Cove as they navigate friendships old and new, romantic relationships past and present, and bring new ideas that could last generations to the quaint island town you’ll want to visit over and over again!
